55 Years of #1 Hits

In the hearts of the Maple Leaf Singers, founded 55 years ago, our audiences are #1! In your honour, our spring show this year presents 55 Years of #1 Hits, the songs you love to remember. Come see and hear us at the Anvil Theatre on May 13th at 7:30 pm and May 14th at 2:00 pm.

Known for our varied repertoire, the Maple Leaf Singers perform folk and classical to rock and pop, gospel to Broadway and movie memories. 55 Years of #1 Hits promises chart topping numbers, award-winning tunes, and outstanding stage and screen music, from the 1960s through to the 2020s. From the Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel to Bon Jovi, Garth Brooks, Katy Perry, and more, the music tells a rich story of our lives over the decades. To complement the full strength of the chorus, individual talents perform acts unique to our usual Spring Show.

Share the excitement with family and friends; give your Mom a ticket as a gift for Mother’s Day!

Art Vancouver is a multi-day art fair event that provides the perfect west coast setting for those looking to showcase, view or purchase artwork on an international stage. Attracting a diverse market of professional artists, collectors and art lovers, the event includes hundreds of artist booths, panel talks, live art demonstrations and painting competitions.

Abendfriede, or Evening Peace, by Josef Rheinberger sets the tone for this evening of song. Our varied and delightful repertoire ranges over time and through genres, from Victoria and Brahms, through to modern classics by Lauridsen, Childs, Aguila and Tate. Hear how Stroope’s Amor de mi Alma and Barnum’s Afternoon on a Hill lend beautiful musical context to exquisite poetry, and how Lapatha & Dyck’s arrangement colours the traditional Irish melody of Bonny Portmore. Enjoy Barnwell’s Wanting Memories, made famous by Sweet Honey in the Rock, and There is a Light, by local musicians Acorn and Nickel, among other choral highlights.

Royal City Musical Theatre (RCMT) is excited to present the riotously entertaining musical Crazy for You at the Massey Theatre from April 27 – May 14, 2023. A classic romantic comedy about a boy, a girl, and a theatre in need of salvation, it is full of humour, larger-than-life characters, and some of the greatest show tunes of all-time featuring Todd Talbot.
