ROCK N' ROLL MUSICAL - inspired by and featuring the songs of Elvis Presley
This musical comedy follows a small-town girl who dreams of hitting the open road. Everything gets turned upside down when a guitar-playing roustabout rambles in, introducing her to romance, rebellion and rock 'n roll.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical with lyrics by Tim Rice. The story is based on the "coat of many colours" story of Joseph from the Bible's Book of Genesis. This was the first Lloyd Webber and Rice musical to be performed publicly.
David James & his band Big River is North America's favourite Johnny Cash tribute act performing all of the hits spanning five decades of Johnny's career.
The Celtic Tenors have established themselves as the most successful classical crossover artists ever to emerge from Ireland. They continue to "reinvent the whole tenor idiom" by pioneering a new style of 'cool' never before seen on the classical stage and by breaking the "traditional stuffy" tenor stereotype.
by Gioachino Rossini - The greatest comic opera of them all.
An abundance of fun, and filled with effervescent melodies and inventive orchestrations, The Barber of Seville is absurd, touching, witty, hilarious and irresistible. VO's inventive new production sets the action on a movie backlot in Seville in the 1940s. Rosina is the starlet, Bartolo is the studio owner (and Rosina's slimy agent), Almaviva is a star-struck nobleman, and Figaro is the studio hairstylist with a flair for finagling and tomfoolery!
Brigadoon was the first big hit for the magical team of Lerner and Loewe. Inspired by Germelshausen, a German story by Friedrich Gerstacker, Brigadoon revolves around two American tourists, Tommy Albright and Jeff Douglas, who stumble upon a misty little Scottish town. Tommy soon falls in love with a local lass, Fiona MacLaren, but as the two men quickly discover, this mysterious little town only reawakens for one day every hundred years.
The Victoria Mother's Day Garden Tour has been an important fundraising event for the Victoria Conservatory of Music since 1982. Visitors come from all over the world to view and enjoy Victoria's acclaimed private gardens. The gardens range from exotic to native, established to new, and country acreage to city spaces. Many visitors come to enjoy the beauty and hear the music presented by the students of the VCM.
We will be sailing aboard a working Packet Freighter that services various destinations in Barkley Sound and drops off, or picks up passengers at those locations. Binoculars, camera, spare batteries, and dressing for the weather are a must as you can spend the entire time out on deck - or stay inside! We are on board the ship for our day trip except when we disembark for an hour in Bamfield.
We have been asked many times over the years to have a tour where we explore northern Vancouver Island - the time has come to do just that. Northern Vancouver Island is home to approximately 15,000 people living in the communities of Alert Bay, Beaver Cove, Coal Harbour, Echo Bay, Holberg, Port Alice, Port Hardy, Port McNeill, Quatsino, Sayward-Kelsey Bay, Sointula, Tahsis, Telegraph Cove, Winter Harbour, Woss, and Zeballos. Join us in exploring the north half of the Island on this educational, inspirational and exciting adventure!
One of Victoria's crowning jewels, and most beloved landmarks, is the Oak Bay Beach Hotel. Having stood on a magnificent stretch of Pacific Ocean coastline for over 80 years, the Oak Bay Beach Hotel has undergone a transformation that will see it reopen in May 2012 as a luxury Victoria resort hotel and spa with private residences. We are looking forward to visiting the hotel once again.
Desolation Sound sits at the end of British Columbia's Sunshine Coast, one of the best cruising grounds in the world. We will explore the Sound in style aboard the 58-foot Swan Spirit. Departing from Lund, we will experience unforgettable scenery and a fabulous meal on our 6-hour cruise.
Please note there are changes for 2012! We will meet the Malaspina Coach Lines bus at the north end parking lot of the Town Centre Mall at 7:15am and it will drive us on and off the ferry and on to Casino Nanaimo (with an optional stop at Woodgrove Mall for a couple of hours) and return us back on the 7:15pm ferry and to the Mall. No more walking on and off the ferry!
