Classic Albums Live- The Beatles - The White Album
Friday January 11, 2008 at 8:00pm
$40 - $55

Classic Albums Live performs the greatest albums from the 60s and 70s live on stage exactly as their slogan says "note for note- cut for cut". In January 2008 Classic Albums Live presents The White Album. This double album is in fact called The Beatles (officially it's the ninth Beatles album), and was released in 1968.  It is most often referred to as The White Album, as it has no text other than the band's name on its plain white sleeve. The album was released near to the height of the Beatles' popularity, and is often hailed as one of the major accomplishments in popular music.

"This is one Ladies Night you won't soon forget!"

The Rose Theatre is proud to present and incredible evening of music starring "the next big thing in jazz", singer Emilie-Claire Barlow and rising opera singer Patricia O'Callaghan. Emilie-Claire Barlow may have been called "the next big thing in jazz" (CBC - Canada Now), but Emilie-Claire is no newcomer to the music business. She started her career as a singer and voice actor at the age of seven, lending her voice to various television and radio jingles and voice-overs. Patricia O'Callaghan shows are an eclectic and theatrical blend of repertoire ranging from Edith Piaf to Rufus Wainwright, with lots of Leonard Cohen and Kurt Weill in between.  Drawing on her knowledge of French, Spanish, and German, Patricia peppers her concerts with these languages, keeping a core of English and always offering accessibility and a refreshing approach to whatever great song she may be singing.

Networks On Tour: The Producers
Tuesday January 22, 2008 at 8:00pm
Wednesday January 23, 2008 at 2:00pm & 8:00pm
$80 - $100

Max Bialystock is a failed, aging Broadway producer who ekes out a living romancing rich old women in exchange for money for his "next play." He encounters the nebbish accountant Leo Bloom when the latter is sent to Bialystock's office to do his books; in the process of this, a chance comment by Bloom inspires a scheme to massively oversell shares in a Broadway production, then purposely make a horrific flop, so that no one will ever audit its books, thus avoiding a payout and leaving the duo free to flee to Brazil with the profits.
