We can’t let slip the details quite yet, but our next show will be Jan. 27, in a spectacular location, with an amazing partner, on a subject that’s near and dear to our hearts.

Stay tuned, friends.

A woman kisses a Vancouver soldier returning from a tour of duty overseas in 1944. Maybe you'll see similar action on Thursday.

This November show is shaping up to be a pretty special one, with storytellers of all stripes and a very memorable musical guest. Plus, we’ll be at the totally beautiful Commercial Drive legion hall, so if you don’t have your pair yet, pick ‘em up here now! There are about 80 left. See you there!

Look for the poppies, and head up the stairs!

We picked our venue, the Grandview Woodland Legion Hall, and the theme, partially to reflect upon the duties that bind us to our communities, to our country, and to each other. In advance of Remembrance Day, as you don your poppy, come out and share your own story about what duty means to you in this modern age.
