WARM UP WITH THIS AMAZING LINEUP FOR THE LOVE CABARET
A Night of Extraordinary Talent on February 10th at New Life Church
Love is in the air, and Theatre Collingwood is thrilled to bring you an unforgettable evening of
world-class entertainment at The LOVE Cabaret! On Monday, February 10th, join us at New
Life Church for a spectacular showcase of artistry featuring a stunning lineup of performers
who will warm your heart and uplift your spirit.
PRE-SHOW: LOCAL STARS SHINE BRIGHT
The evening begins at 6:30 PM with complimentary “mocktails” and a magical 45-minute pre-
show featuring two of Collingwood’s finest:
Deb Fitzsimmons, whose voice has been likened to that of an angel, is renowned for her
heartfelt performances and deep connection to the music of Joni Mitchell. Her soothing
vocals and emotive delivery are sure to leave you spellbound.
Greg Gibson, just off travelling and performing around the world, who is an
accomplished musician and musical director (most recently for Alice in Wonderland –
The Panto), will bring his immense talent to the stage. A familiar face from Theatre
Collingwood’s Porchside Festival, Greg’s music will warm your heart!
THE CABARET
At 7:30 PM, the auditorium doors open (OK maybe a little sooner than that), and the magic
continues with a lineup of some of Canada’s most extraordinary talents.
Anne Raciunas and Chelsea Coulter will kick off the main show with their dynamic
energy and passion for performance, setting the tone for the spectacular evening ahead.
David Ball, fresh from his star turn in the Stratford Festival’s La Cage Aux Folles, will
bring his incredible stage presence and versatility to the cabaret. A true triple threat,
David will guide us through the evening as our MC and deliver unforgettable
performances, including a stirring rendition of I Will Cover You from RENT.
Thomas Alderson, known for his storytelling prowess and versatility in comedy, drama,
dance, and music, joins David for a duet that will leave you in awe. A director with
credits at both the Stratford and Shaw Festivals, Thomas is a master of his craft.
Cleopatra Williams, a powerhouse vocalist and one of Canada’s leading female
performers, will take the stage by storm. With a résumé that includes sharing stages with
Sting, Justin Bieber, and Alessia Cara, Cleopatra has also starred in Broadway mega-musicals Jukebox Hero, Kinky Boots, Jersey Boys, We Will Rock You, Wizard of Oz and West Side
Story to name a few.
Jennifer Stewart, the incoming Artistic Director of Theatre Orangeville, will showcase
her incredible talent. With nine seasons at the Stratford Festival, roles in Mirvish
productions like Hairspray and Mamma Mia and experience directing and performing
across Canada, Jennifer is a force to be reckoned with.
Laura Kelly, a classically trained opera soloist with a résumé that includes performances
with Andrea Bocelli and Placido Domingo, will grace us with her stunning voice. Laura’s
experience with ensembles like the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir makes her a standout in
any lineup.
Graham Scott Fleming, a small town boy (he’s from Elmvale) turned Broadway star,
will captivate audiences with his heartfelt performances. Known for his lead role in Kinky
Boots, Graham’s now following his other passion in country music and performed last
summer on the main stage at the Boots & Hearts Festival.
Shealyn Angus, Kristin Alary, and Isaac Haig, three dynamic and versatile performers,
will add their unique artistry to the evening.
An incredible band, under the expert direction of Renée Cingolani, will provide the
perfect musical backdrop for the evening. Renée, a graduate of the Royal Conservatory of
Music and the Glenn Gould Professional School, has toured North America, performed
with Cirque du Soleil, and shared stages with legends like Christopher Plummer and
Colm Wilkinson.
