The Fab Fourever

Saturday, June 1 /2013 at 7:30pm

Yes, The Beatles are coming to Creekside Theatre!!!

Well not the real Beatles of course, but the next best thing. The Fab Fourever feature the talents of four musicians, plus an amazing keyboardist for accompanying parts. Featured as John, is Kevin Davey, supported by Jody Tennant, who plays Paul, with Jean Luc as George, Paul Kaszonyi adding the driving rhythm force, Ringo, and Blake Mackay on keyboards.

"It's like going back in time" says Tennant, who wasn't even born when the Beatles were together as a musical quartet, "We structure our show so that the audience sees the full timeline of the Beatles progression from mop-topped rockers, to the introspective kings of flower power, to the swan-song of the Beatles catologue Abbey Road and Let It Be."

"No era goes untouched," adds Davey. The Fab Fourever endeavor to be as authentic to the Beatles and their sound in every way. All of the music is performed live, without the use of backing tracks or vocal overdubs. Costume changes, complete with matching instruments, have been researched and the attention to detail is unprecedented.

Foremost, The Fab Fourever are Beatle fans, and that appreciation of the music translates into a passion and an energy onstage, that becomes infectious! Audiences, again and again, are struck by the "musical transcendence" that unfolds.
Come hear your favourite Beatles songs from the early years to the final rooftop concert. See amazing costumes, authentic gear, plus enjoy the richness of a fifth member on keyboards.
This is a show you won't forget! See The Fab Fourever - Canada’s # 1 Beatles Experience

The “LIFE AFTER LAUNDRY” Ladies CLUB presents


 Robin Craig     Toyah Willcox      Brümilda Van Rensburg
The POWER of THREE
Canadian premiere

Saturday, June 29 /2013 at 7:30pm
Doors open at 6pm for PreShow: Wine and Dessert bar, Art Gallery & More!

“The Power of Three is a delightful anecdote about friendship, perseverance and hope that celebrates the strength of the older woman.”

Studio Magazine, UK

The Power of Three is a feel good comedy filmed in London, England and starring three age 50 something actresses: Toyah Willcox (British), Robin Craig (Canadian) and Brümilda Van Rensburg (South African). Three friends, separated by time and distance, rediscover the bonds of friendship and reunite to improve their lives. Dreams aren't just for the young. This movie is the first movie ever that stars, was written by, directed by, scored by and produced by women over age 50. The film has been an Official Selection and audience favourite at the Women's International Film Festival (Miami), the Brooklyn Girl Film Festival (New York) and the Toronto Independent Film Festival. The movie has had premieres in London and Johannesburg but not in Canada.

We decided to team up with the ``Life After Laundry`` Ladies CLUB (based in Lake Country, B.C.) to combine our Canadian premiere with a fundraiser for charity. I came to Oyama to recuperate last May after being hit by a car. The wonderful people I've met in the Okanagan convinced me that all the hard working women here deserve a feel good movie that honours and celebrates the older woman.
Our Canadian star, Robin Craig, is a veteran of Wind at My Back, Degrassi, the Shaw Festival and many other engagements. She is also an "Okanagan Woman" having spent her childhood summers with her grandparents in Oyama. We are pleased to announce Robin Craig will be a special guest at this Canadian premiere." Ann Cameron (Producer)

``Life After Laundry`` Ladies CLUB officially started in January 2013. We are a growing group of women of all ages. Our goal is to help the community of Lake Country in a variety of ways, from donating to charity, to helping out residents who may have fallen on hard times all the while having fun!

Rann Berry &
THE ONE HIT WONDERS

Those BIG Hits from the 60s and 70s that you forgot you LOVE !

Encore Performance
Due to the overwhelming response to the May 11th show, Rann Berry and the One Hit Wonders will be returning to the Creekside Theatre for a second Encore Performance on Saturday, July 13th. Don’t miss this special 2nd show that will feature some great new songs and other surprise as well.
Music lovers are re living their past, singing along and dancing in the aisles. If you grew up in the 60s or 70s you do know, and most likely LOVE all the songs in this show. “The reaction to this show has been truly unbelievable” says Rann Berry. The audiences are a mix of Baby Boomers who grew up with these songs, and the Boomer parents who were young adults at the time. Throughout the show you’ll hear people saying things like “that was my favorite song in grade 10 ” or “That song reminds me of my high school boyfriend Gary and his Camaro”. It seems like the music from this era can take an audience back in time like nothing else. Songs like Seasons in the Sun, MacArthur Park, Hooked on a Feelin’, and The Night Chicago Died are all part of this musical trip back to the 60s and 70s
