Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue with Southern Avenue
2025-11-18 20:00 - 22:00 | National Arts Centre, 1 Elgin Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1P 5W1, Canada
Born Troy Andrews, Trombone Shorty got his start earlier than most: at four, he made his first appearance at Jazz Fest performing with Bo Diddley; at six, he was leading his own brass band; and by his teenage years, he was hired by Lenny Kravitz to join his Electric Church World Tour. Shorty’s proven he’s more than just a horn player, though. Catch his NAC gig, open the pages of a magazine, flip on any late-night TV show, and you’ll see an undeniable star with utterly magnetic charisma, a natural-born showman who can command an audience with the best of them.
Lifted, his most recent album from 2022, finds the Grammy-nominated NOLA icon and his bandmates tapping into the raw power and exhilarating grooves of their legendary live show, channelling it all into a series of tight, explosive performances that blur the lines between funk, soul, R&B, and psychedelic rock. The writing is bold and self-assured, standing up to hard times and loss with grit and determination, and the playing is muscular to match, blending pop gleam with hip-hop swagger and second-line abandon.
And to start off your evening, Southern Avenue will be presenting their album, Family. More than a record to them—it’s a declaration of their growth and unity. Born in the heart of Memphis, their sound reflects the cultural crossroads of the city, a tapestry of harmonies and rhythms that could only come from a melting pot of experiences like theirs. These songs chronicle their evolution, not just as a band, but as a family. They dive into the moments that shaped them, the struggles that tested them, and the dreams that keep them moving forward. The sound of destiny fulfilled—the sound of people who were meant to find one another. This album isn’t just something to hear; it’s something to feel. Like a vibrant family photo album, these songs capture snapshots of their past, reflections of their present, and their hopes for the future. To them, music is about connection, and this collection of songs is their invitation to share that connection with you.

Written in 1965, Les Belles Soeurs portrays 15 Québécois women expressing their anger, desperation and frustration loudly, rudely and audaciously. Germaine Lauzon has won a million stamps in a contest. She invites her family and neighbours into her kitchen to help paste them into booklets. Fighting for any power in their suffocating lives, the women yell, backstab, dream and steal in grand theatrical style.
Les Belles Soeurs will be performed in English.
Run time approximately 2 hours. Includes intermission
Phoenix Players is pleased to announce the fundraising recipient for our upcoming production of Les Belles Soeurs, the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign. Grandmothers across sub-Saharan Africa have stepped in to care for millions of children orphaned by AIDS, many after losing their own children to the pandemic.

Orpheus Musical Theatre Presents: Annie
2025-11-21 19:30 - 22:30 | Meridian Theatres @ Centrepointe, 101 Centrepointe Drive, Nepean, Ontario, K2G 5K7, Canada
Based on Little Orphan Annie, the popular comic strip by Harold Gray, Annie warms the hearts of all as we witness her rise from next to nothing in New York City. She is determined to find her parents, who left her at the orphanage years ago. Though things don’t quite work out the way she has planned, she does manage to thwart the plans of the evil Miss Hannigan and find a new family with billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his secretary Grace Farrell, and her lovable pooch, Sandy.

Blue Rodeo
2025-11-21 20:00 - 22:30 | National Arts Centre, 1 Elgin Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1P 5W1, Canada
Now celebrating their 40th anniversary, Blue Rodeo has proven to be one of Canada’s most enduring and important bands. They have received 31 JUNO Award nominations (winning 12) and 17 CCMA Awards (winning two). Since their formation in Toronto when they electrified the supercool Queen West scene — before dominating the soft-seaters and arenas of the nation — Blue Rodeo has sold more than four million albums, played thousands of shows, been inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, received a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame, been named to the Order of Canada and been honoured with the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award.
The magic of Blue Rodeo’s sound comes from the distinct yet complementary songwriting styles of its lead singers, paired with the exceptional musicianship of its members. Today, the band has expanded to include original member Bazil Donovan, whose bass lines provide a rock-solid foundation, with drummer Glenn Milchem’s dynamic playing driving every song forward. Keyboardist Michael Boguski adds rich textures, Colin Cripps deepens the sound with his masterful guitar work and harmonies, and multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Bowskill brings versatility with guitar, mandolin, pedal steel, and fiddle, rounding out the band’s signature blend of country, rock, and roots.
And coming as the opener is Adam Baldwin!
With his sophomore full-length, Concertos & Serenades, Adam Baldwin – born and raised “inside these imaginary lines” that denote Nova Scotia – offers an east coast testimony that challenges the typical tourism marketing gloss. Through eight masterful yarns, the songwriter bears witness and pays tribute to a tradition of desperation: sinners and losers, perpetual failures, and down-and-out phantoms that haunt his home’s coastlines and back roads – without a passing judgement. Some of the tales happened, some didn’t, and most walk a tightrope between truth and fiction.
It’s a good thing, too, because Concertos & Serenades does nothing less than tell the other side of the story about, “a wind-battered people, who grow up with a callus over our whole body,” as the songwriter himself puts it.
Singer-songwriter Adam Baldwin has been a mainstay of the Atlantic Canada music scene for over a decade!
