The eighth iteration of our annual Something Else! Festival will resemble last year's festival - in pieces, outdoors, again, but spread over an even wider timeline. Depending on the status of public health concerns, we plan on presenting once per week to once every other week, one to six acts, over one to three events per day. Our festival and music series will be spread across a handful to a dozen or so Saturdays at the luscious Bayfront Park, while our Composite Arts Series, “Watch it Burn!” will be slotted one Thursday per month at the Art Gallery of Hamilton. Hopefully, starting no later than late July, the following Southern Ontario and Canadian artists should grace our stages: Eve Egoyan (plays Erik Satie), Silvervest, Eyevin Trio, Togetherness!, Lina Allemano 4, Brass Knuckle Sandwich, Chimera, So Long 7, See Through 4, plus many more.

Concerts include solo voice, trumpet, piano, cello, organ, brass ensemble, choral, featuring both professional and emerging artists. There should be something for everyone! However, if you want “blue-grass” that ain’t us! The repertoire is within a classical frame, still with some “easy-listening” selections!

No Strings Theatre aims to provide opportunities for pre-college youth and emerging artists to develop their skills in all aspects of the music theatre arts under the guidance of professional artists. Our “Many Voices, Many Stories” initiative tells the untold stories of Canadian history through artistic expressions of workshops and productions and supports the development of new works by new generation artists. This season will be the development of Dario et la Diablesse: A Caribbean Musical by Sasky Louison and Darryl Joseph-Dennie. It will be overseen by dramaturgs Richardo Keens-Douglas (script) and Mark Cassius (music), and choreographer Shakeil Rollock. The product will include a table read, interviews, and a behind-the-scenes look at the developmental process.
