And The Tony Award Goes To...

A new original, high energy, madcap jukebox musical where the supporting ensemble has to scramble to get their Tony Award Ceremony ready before the curtain rises! Will they find a headliner? Will the impending storm ruin it all? With a brand-new script by Martin Galba, the show will feature music from classics such as Wicked, Moulin Rouge, A Chorus Line and many more… It is Sunday, June 2047. During this year’s theatre season there were no new musicals brought to the Broadway stage which gives the artistic community a chance to celebrate the amazing works already written. On the momentous day of the 100th Tony Award Ceremony, which will be televised live all over the world, a big storm hits New York City and shuts the whole city down. As the performing cast rehearses at Radio City Music Hall the Producer, Max, along with the Director, Harold, and Choreographer, Jeremy, all have to scramble and devise a plan before the cameras start to roll. With some tense relationships, others rediscovering love, and actors vying for center stage… careers are on the line! Will our Broadway Legend Glenn Desmond be able to save the day? Does Katherine, a star in the making, get her big break? Only the talents and passions of our dedicated musical theatre performers will rise to the challenge and live the theatre code of “the show must go on”! Written/Directed and Choreographed by Martin Galba, who is the distinguished recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal. Originally from Slovakia, Martin’s career in the arts as an actor, singer, dancer, director, choreographer and producer has been steadily building since the early 2000s. Music Direction by Brad Heintzman, who graduated with honors from the Royal Conservatory of Music, University of Toronto and Grant MacEwan University Music Program.

Nerd Nite #88

Our May lineup brings some all-new subjects: weather reporting, how your medical data gets accessed, and making your own sake. Come join us for another three great talks!  When: Thursday, May 29th, at 7:30pm  (Doors & bar open at 7pm, with drinks available all night)  Where: Backstage Theatre at Fringe Theatre Adventures  Fringe Theatre Arts Barn, 10330 84 Ave NW, Edmonton  How much: $30  Amanda Hedden: Ban Ryu: 10,000 Ways to Make Sake  Sake is a misunderstood and underrated beverage that has deep traditional roots in Asia, but an exciting emerging community in the rest of the world. We’ll discuss how sake is made and how it can be done at home.  Amanda is a proud member of the Sake Brewer’s Guild and had been fermenting at the home-artisanal level for several years. She embraced being a “jack of all trades, master of none” – the learning process is her favourite part of any of her many interests.  TikTok: @chronicnostalgic Instagram: @chronicnostalgic  Laura Blazejewski: Canadian Weather Monitoring  Laura will take us on a whirlwind tour through the evolution of weather monitoring in Canada! Discover how cutting-edge sensors have transformed weather tracking and supported environmental research. We’ll explore diverse applications like fire weather, climate change research, and national meteorological services, along with the intricate networks developed across Canada. This talk promises to blend history, innovation, and practical insights for a deeper appreciation of weather science.  Meet Laura, the ultimate weather enthusiast! Her passion for meteorology sparked at age 9 during a school weather unit and an unforgettable field trip to the Weather Network. With a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science and a major in Atmospheric Science, Laura forecasted a future as a meteorologist. However, the winds shifted and took her on a different path into environmental monitoring, and she hasn’t looked back since. She now spends her days supporting researchers, government agencies, and industries by designing, selling, and teaching about advanced weather stations. She spends her nights looking out the window, waiting for the next storm to roll in.  Brechin Piper: Consent-Based Access Control and Healthcare Data  Ever wonder why your Doctor can’t see your healthcare data from another province or country?

He served as a Signals Officer in the Canadian Armed Forces for 15 years and occasionally lectures at Concordia University of Edmonton. When he’s not ranting about why you shouldn’t keep reusing that one password you made in junior high for all of your accounts, he can be found with his crime solving dogs Sherlock and Watson, or frantically searching for his missing D4 before he steps on it.  LinkedIn: Brechin Piper
