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.

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.

Ron James - The Noise Between Our Ears
 
All ticket sales are final—no refunds or exchanges.Beware of ticket re-sellers when purchasing tickets.
 
Canada's #1 stand-up road warrior Ron James, is in the driver's seat once again and bound full throttle for the 'big wide open' with his new show, 'The Noise Between Our Ears'.
With a seismic level of socio-political change shifting a reality we long took for granted, what better way to process the cacophonous overload of stimuli than in the language of laughs. 
'Fresh out of wrapping' content skewers everything from the tyrannical Tangerine Genie south of the border looking to turn us into the 51st state, to aging Baby Boomers not but twenty years away from roaming 'the home' in their Led Zeppelin onesies, just one more sing a long away from taking a Stairway to Heaven! Alongside these macro issues is a window on the daily trials of a technologically compromised ADHD addled adult, who came of age in a day when 'hash tag' was something you got after getting too close to the hash knives! Whether getting comedic mileage with classic bits on generational differences in families then and now; teacher terrors of public-school days; hand me-down hockey gear; party hearty camping trips with pals in those 'bullet proof days of yore', there's something for everybody. 'Ultimately though, 'The Noise Between Our Ears' sees Ron as the ever struggling 'Everyman', doing his best to make sense of a world off kilter while bedeviled by forces beyond his control, where airlines constantly lose luggage, stock portfolios nosedive, mortality's the new reality and the barber spends more time trimming your ears than he does your head!

Come play at The Forum - We're hosting a FREE evening, and we'd love to have you come see what we're all about over here! 
 
Burlesque - 5-6pm
Burlesque is a performance art rooted in parody and satire that evolved into the "art of the tease". It evokes empowerment, creativity, and self-expression through movement, musicality, and giving yourself permission to take up space.
This class is an invitation to step into character, presence and self-love while honouring the rich, radical roots of burlesque. You can expect a playful, positive, and inclusive space where confidence is cultivated and all bodies and identities are celebrated.
Open Play - 6-7pm
Open Play is your access to explore all things Forum. Run the warped wall, get a workout in, play on the silks, climb the rope, or move however feels good in your body. You’re also welcome to use this time to practice movement or burlesque skills you just learned earlier in the evening. ;)
This is a self-led, unstructured session. Participants must be familiar with the apparatuses they choose to use. This is not an instructed class. It’s simply time and space for you to practice, explore, and play in a way that feels aligned for you.
Acro Class - 7-8pm
Come solo or bring a partner. In this instructed class, we explore foundational movements, balance, and communication through partner acrobatics in a relaxed, supportive environment. You’ll be guided through skills, transitions, and partner connection with an emphasis on safety, trust, and clear communication.
After class, stay to connect, share, and unwind with our growing acro community.
 
What to Bring:
Comfortable clothing you can move in, a water bottle, and your curiosity.
