There Goes The Bride, a comedy by Ray Cooney and John Chapman. This wildly funny
British farce was a huge hit in London's West End. An hour before his daughter's
wedding, Timothy Westerby is still trying to find a sure-fire idea for one of
his advertising clients -- a brassiere company. After he inadvertently mixes
medication and alcohol, his middle-aged insecurities trigger an identity crisis
that prompts him to create an imaginary love affair with an 1920s flapper. As
usual, neither his wife nor his business partner take him seriously. London's
Daily Mirror called it ä fiendishly funny farce"and The Times'reviewer raved,
"The spirit of true farce takes over". Tickets on sale in early April at
Jessica's Book Nook, Thornbury; The Crow's Nest, Collingwood; Stuff To Read,
Meaford or call 519-599-6785. Advance tickets $8 adults, $4 children. At the
door on performance nights (limited availaility) $10 adults.

HOT ROCKS 'Rolling Stones Show' Collingwood
Thursday, May 17, 2007 - Thursday, May 17, 2007
MAY 17 The Collingwood Rotary Club is proud to present ‘HOT ROCKS’ – THE ROLLING
STONES SHOW’ - for one performance only at the Gayety Theatre at 8 p.m. Doors
will open at 7.30 p.m. Rush Seating. Tickets are $ 30 each. Formed with the sole
objective of delivering the most captivating replication of a contemporary
Rolling Stones concert, ‘HOT ROCKS’ plays venues in Toronto and throughout
southern Ontario, as well as across Canada and internationally. Their website
www.hotrocks.ca has plenty of great photos and video. Originally modelled after
the Stones’ hugely successful 2003 “Licks” and continuing through the "Bigger
Bang" tour, HOT ROCKS recreates a contemporary Rolling Stones concert in full
costume and repertoire – they look and sound like just like the Stones! And –
they will be bringing their show to The Gayety Theatre in Collingwood on May 17,
2007 . This show is a fundraiser sponsored by the Collingwood Rotary Club and is
in support of a very worthy cause - the final worldwide eradication of polio.
The lead singer - a dead ringer for Mick Jagger - captures the essence of the
greatest performer in rock and roll, and leads the band through four decades of
The Rolling Stones’ greatest hits, and occasionally some of their lesser known
gems. The other members of the band have their acts down cold, from a “Keith
Richards” look-alike, striking all the rights chords and all the right moves, to
a “Ronnie Wood” hitting those classic guitar solos and definitely looking the
part, and the rhythm section has the beat nailed down. This is going to be a
great show and the proceeds going to a great cause, so come on out for this
one-of-a-kind event in support of the Collingwood Rotary Club. This is the
ultimate tribute to the Rolling Stones, featuring a live band, with back-up
strings and horns, excellent vocals and an all-round amazing show ! You’ll truly
think you are watching the real thing. Great fun for the whole family ! All the
proceeds will go to the Rotary International programme for Polio Eradication.
Tickets can be obtained at IDA – Stuart Ellis Pharmacy, 169 Hurontario Street,
The Financial Centre, 59, Hurontario Street, Terase Art & Home, in Blue Mountain
Village or at 45 Bruce Street South in Thornbury, or from any Rotary Club
member. For further information, please call Dennis at 444 2544.

the continent. His humourous antics and down-home music combine with a superb
instrumental ability to have made Eric one of North America's favourites. A
master of many instruments; from the well known (banjo, mandolin, guitar and
fiddle), to the not so well known (psaltery, musical saw, spoons and bodhran),
to the truly bizarre (sewerphone, nose flute), Eric shares the joy of
music-making with kids and their parents. At an Eric Nagler concert children and
their parents join in the fun on spoons, rattles, and bells, jingling car keys,
or singing and clapping as integral parts of the band. For more information
