Ashley MacIsaac (Indie/rock/classical)
August 4, 2010
Times:8:00pm – 10:00pm
When Ashley MacIsaac burst on the worldwide scene with 1995s Hi, How Are You Today? (A&M) he scored the kind of coup instrumental artists often dream of. Going triple-platinum in Canada and breaking down radio barriers with the Gaelic single “Sleepy Maggie,” Ashley became an immediate pop icon, rebellious and exuberant, resplendent in kilts, army boots and combat pants. Copping from rockers’ sensibilities, Ashley made an aesthetic of it onstage, effortlessly blending his Celtic heritage with contemporary elements such as punk, electronica, hip-hop and grunge. Audiences who may have felt alienated by Ashley’s disregard of convention were instantly won over by his dazzling displays of grit, passion and authority. Recalls Ashley at the time, “My father once told me, “If you want to play the fiddle, get mad at it or don’t play it at all.”" Presented by Meaford Hall

Roald Dahl’s Little Red Riding Hood
August 20, 2010
Presented by Christy’s Stage Door.
By Matthew White and Ana Sanderson

Mr. Wolf thinks he’s a match for Little Red Riding Hood and her three little piggy pals and gobbles up Grandma. But his hair-raising antics will cost him his skin. And it’s sweet Little Red Riding Hood herself who has the ace up her sleeve or, to be frank the pistol in her knickers.
Performed by student of Christy’s Stage Door Musical Theatre Camp. Ages 10-18.
