Anais Mitchell and the Hadestown Orchestra
| 03/21/12 - 03/22/12 | Anais Mitchell and the Hadestown Orchestra | Anais Mitchell and the Hadestown Orchestra in HADESTOWN: A FOLK OPERA Anais Mitchell’s critically-adored folk opera Hadestown is based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. Set in Depression-era America, this classic story tells the tale of lovers torn apart not by death, but by the desire to escape poverty by moving to Hadestown, an underground gold-mining community overseen by the merciless Mr. Hades. The Folk world’s answer to The Who’s Tommy, this Arden Original will showcase Anais and her seven-piece band along with a cast of guest performers including; John Rutherford, Stephen Tchir, Charlotte Cornfield, Kris Demeanor, Andrea House, Kaley Bird and Rebecca Anderson. |

| 04/19/12 - 03/20/12 | Arlo Guthrie’s Boys Night Out | Arlo Guthrie’s Boys Night Out in The grand debut of a folk music legend Forty-four years and 25 albums since releasing his anti-war anthem Alice’s Restaurant, Arlo Guthrie is still taking his time-tested tunes on the road. This time he’s bringing some family and friends along for the ride. The Boys Night Out Band features Arlo’s son Abe Guthrie, grandson Krishna Guthrie, multi-instrumentalist Gordon Titcomb and long-time drummer Terry Hall. Playing hits from every era along with a few modern gems, their set is sure to please. With a blend of insightful philosophy and side-splitting humour, a night out with Arlo Guthrie is a night out to remember. |

L’Orchestre D’Hommes-Orchestres performs Tom Waits
| 03/27/12 - 03/28/12 | L’Orchestre D’Hommes-Orchestres performs Tom Waits | L’Orchestre D’Hommes-Orchestres performs Tom Waits in The definition of “must-see-it-live” Tom Waits is one of the world’s most unique artists. But when Quebec’s L’Orchestre D’Hommes-Orchestres get a hold of his songs, things get decidedly more unpredictable. From saws to stepladders, bottles to balloons, over 100 ordinary objects become invented instruments playing together in cacophonous harmony. With a growling chorus of six voices and a few traditional instruments in the mix, L’Orchestre D’Hommes-Orchestres delivers an original experience that surprises and delights both Tom Waits fans and folks who’ve never heard a single Waits tune. Their madcap, frenetic energy was a runaway hit at the 2011 High Performance Rodeo. |
