Bear pours a heady cocktail of your favourite Lightfoot, reuniting Pierre Brault, Rachel Eugster, Robin Guy, and Scott Richardson (directed by Eleanor Crowder) for an evening of nostalgia and surprise. Troubador and master storyteller, Gordon Lightfoot sings of our landscape and our history, instilling a national songscape into every Canadian’s heart.
Lift your glasses to honour another Canadian giant with the team that brought you tributes to Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell. We don’t know how it could be anything but . . . Beautiful.
Lightfoot’s “songs . . . have been embedded in the North American listening
consciousness for the past half-century and counting.” —Mike Mettler
“Once you hear his songs, you never forget him.” —Maxine Nelson
Once again this year, Bear invites local choirs to get involved, offering their members a discount on tickets, and asking them to rise in their seats to sing along in a couple of the songs. And once again, we hope that the audience is inspired to join in! (Email [email protected] for details.)
Help us celebrate the Canadian icon of whose songs Bob Dylan once said, “Every time I hear a song of his, it’s like I wish it would last forever.”
