Attention, theatre patrons! We are pleased to announce that Liberty Hall Dinner Theatre will be presenting "Marquis Crossing Ladies Society's First Attempt at Murder" by Pat Cook, with special arrangements by Eldridge Publishing. The show opens on Sunday, February 01, 2026, and there will be evening and matinee performances through February 28, 2026. This is a unique and unforgettable experience you will not want to miss!
"Marquis Crossing Ladies Society's First Attempt at Murder" sounds like an intriguing title for a mystery novel or a comedic play. Picture a quaint and seemingly tranquil town where a group of elderly ladies, known for their knitting circles and charitable bake sales, find themselves tangled in a surprising plot twist. Their serene routine is disrupted when a local nuisance threatens their beloved community center, and they jokingly concoct a plan to "eliminate" the problem. However, with their first attempt at murder, chaos ensues, leading to a series of humorous mishaps and misunderstandings. As the story unfolds, the ladies must navigate their way through unexpected consequences, all while uncovering secrets, building friendships, and ultimately solving a mystery that none of them anticipated. The narrative could blend humor and suspense, offering readers a delightful exploration of camaraderie, aging, and the unexpected adventures life can present.

Brave New Writing

Step back in time to 1957 and relive the electrifying sounds of early rock and roll! Musician and storyteller Steve Olson uncovers the incredible true story of the concert by four future Hall of Famers -- Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Wanda Jackson -- that shook his hometown of Camrose. Using classic guitars, historic photos, and masterful storytelling, Olson brings to life this "rockabilly roadtrip" from Memphis to small-town Alberta. Don't miss this one-man rockabilly spectacle where legendary songs, untold history, and nostalgia collide!
“More than one music fan…have wished for a time machine…to wedge into those packed auditoriums on the vast plains and in the Canadian Rockies…to see Johnny Cash [& The Rockabillies] young and raw and wild, singing into Art Deco microphones that looked like something that shook loose off the hood of an Oldsmobile…” – Rick Bragg
“I had the pleasure of witnessing a 15-minute concept presentation of this performance at the Alberta Showcase in October 2024. I was impressed by Mr. Olson's artistry and the compelling nature of the show. With the combination of storytelling, music, and projections, I am confident that Johnny Cash & The Rockabillies will resonate strongly with our community and audiences across Canada. I was particularly drawn to this production as it uniquely a rural prairie story.” 
-Nick Beach, General Manager, Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre 

 
Stephen Olson is a classically-trained guitarist who learned to play Chet Atkins thumb-picking from his Uncle Lyndy. By playing bass and melody lines simultaneously, Stephen can authentically replicate the country and rockabilly sounds of the 1950s. Stephen draws the audiences in with his electric performances and stories from this golden era of music.

John Hewitt is a force not seen since the end of the 70’s. There are bands, artists and songwriters that mimic and imitate but John Hewitt absorbs and reimagines. From folk clubs to house concerts, festivals to halls John is a master of storytelling, arranging, producing and a painter of poems scarcely seen in today’s musical climate. Since his early teens taking in the powerful sounds of the Beatles, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and the Grateful Dead he has been wandering, searching and yielding a crop of new ideas from the old world.  A multi-instrumentalist from Sault Ste. Marie Ontario and being Alberta bound since 2018 John’s mark on the Western music scene is impossible to go unnoticed. Performing over 150 shows per year (From Alberta and British Columbia to Montana, Colorado, California and beyond), covering 20,000 miles per annum and releasing upwards of 3 albums in that same timeframe there is no comparison to the work ethic, the attitude and the drive that John has as an artist. Fronting the New Americans and touring solo most of the year his output impresses the young and the old, the folk and the rock, the country and the town and the only thing left at the end of the night is a feeling you won’t get anywhere else.
 

 
A poet born in the heat of Las Vegas, Abigayle Oakley blends the melodic richness of folk pioneers with the lyrical honesty oftoday’s confessional singer-songwriters. Her songs explore the complexities of life and the existential questions that shape us, often with a sharp, tongue-in-cheek wit that adds layers of humor and insight.
Abigayle made her Bluebird Cafe debut in 2024. She has toured the US and Canada opening for acts such as The War and Treaty, Jed and The Valentine, Forest Blakk and more.
Her songs have been recorded by Nashville artists including Kate Yeager, Molly Frances, and CMT’s September Artist of the Month, Ash Ruder. When not writing, practicing, or performing, you can find Abigayle hiking the beautiful hills of Tennessee.
 

 
 

John Hewitt & The New Americans

Jâca is an award-winning clarinet/guitar duo that combines world music, virtuosity, and humor to bring an adventurous, passionate, and completely original musical style to the stage. Jaca combines the intimacy of an instrumental duo with a larger-than-life energy to create an experience that consistently leaves audiences buzzing. “At a Jâca concert you’re not just a bystander, you feel a part of it.” – Humans of Chamber Music.
Described as an “alluring and stunning combination” (Take Effect) Jâca’s music is truly a unique fusion that fits into no single genre. From Flamenco to Fado, Appalachia to Argentina, and guitar slides to clarinet smears, the duo explores the highest limits of what their instruments can do. Their debut album, Breakthrough (Navona, 2022) has been honored by worldwide organizations including the International Portuguese Music Awards (Best Instrumental Performance 2023), and the International Clarinet Association. Portuguese-Canadian clarinetist Wesley Ferreira is an acclaimed soloist and orchestral musician. He always brings his infectious positivity, big smile, and way too many reeds to every rehearsal. Dividing time between his home in Spain and his native USA, guitarist Jaxon Williams is an active performer of both Classical and Spanish Flamenco styles. He also knows more about fingernail care than a certified beautician and can slap on a fake nail in 5 minutes or less. Since 2018, Jâca has brought their infectious charm to arts series and music festivals across the USA and worldwide. They have played in prestigious venues including Carnegie Hall and have been featured on national television and radio in Portugal, Ecuador, and the USA. Press outlets have described the duo as being “at the forefront of an exciting new wave of chamber music groups” (Sneak Preview), and praises Jâca for “pushing classical music forward” (Culturs: Global Multicultural Magazine).
Dividing their time between the USA, Canada, Spain, and Portugal, this 21st-century duo represents the limitless potential of an interconnected world.

University of Alberta Opera Theatre Presents:
URINETOWN, THE MUSICALMusic and Lyrics | Mark HollmannBook and Lyrics | Greg Kotis
Friday, January 9 | 7:30 p.m.Saturday, January 10 | 7:30 p.m.Sunday, January 11 | 2:00 p.m.Convocation Hall
Hold onto your hats (and your bladder!) The University of Alberta Opera Theatre is about to flush your expectations down the drain with their upcoming production of Urinetown, The Musical. It’s quirky, it’s sardonic, and it’s the most fun you can have with a water shortage. This unconventional satire on corporate greed, social justice, and the price of well…..using the restroom, hits the stage on January 9, 10 and 11 at Convocation Hall on the University of Alberta campus.
In a world where water is more precious than gold, the musical takes us to a dystopian society where access to toilets is a privilege - one that comes with a steep fee. When the working class revolts against the corporate-controlled bathroom monopoly, what follows is a hilarious and surprisingly profound exploration of human nature, power, and the consequences of taking everything for granted.
Urinetown takes on contemporary issues with sharp wit, irreverent humour, and a surprisingly catchy score. The talented cast of U of A Opera Theatre will bring to life a world where the simplest human need becomes a battleground for rebellion, love and revolution. With raucous numbers like “It’s a Privilege to Pee” and “Run, Freedom, Run!” expect songs that stick with you longer than that last sip of water before the show starts.
Don't let the title fool you - this is no bathroom humour showcase (well, not entirely). Beneath the slapstick antics and over-the-top parody, Urinetown packs a serious punch, addressing themes of power, corruption, and inequality that will leave you thinking long after the final curtain.

URINETOWN was produced on Broadway in September, 2001 by the Araca Group and Dodger Theatricals in association with TheaterDreams, Inc., and Lauren Mitchell. URINETOWN is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
