November Hootenanny
Friday Night Hootenanny
Friends! Friends! Where would be without friends?
This month we will feature some good friends of the Hootenanny and some of my spectacularly talented personal friends.
Mike and Kaitlyn: You know them for hosting amazing shows at the Mile End Guitar Shop and as the makers of exceptional instruments, but you ought to hear them sing and play together! Lovely!
Diana Daly: Her disc "When Women Kill" is a beautiful example of Diana's songwriting power. Live, she's a fireball.

Sarah-Jane Scouten: This represents Sarah-Jane's triumphant return to the hootenanny after months of touring and playing from the far north to the deep south. Although this will be her 24th show since she came back last week, she is eternally entertaining and worth seeing again and again.

Matt Large: The Large Man himself! Years of honed chops and a powerful voice, Matt is a tireless supporter of folk and roots music in Montréal and one of the scene's great performers.
Bobby Dove: If Hank Williams was a petite urban cowgirl with a deep soulful voice, they would call him BOBBY DOVE!

Ben "Baltimore Washington" Brandes: You know him as the frontman of The Unsettlers but you ought to hear him with just an acoustic guitar. Boom!
Casey Alexander: Will raise a horn full of ale and regale us with a tale!

Coming Soon
The Creator of the Universe is coming to Montréal for the first time ever! God takes the stage in the form of Montréal actor Donald Rees in An Act of God: the divinely funny, critically acclaimed Broadway hit play by David Javerbaum, in which God and His devoted angels answer the deepest questions that have plagued mankind since creation.
A hotel you can stay in…forever. Staff are eager to help, and metaphysical boundaries are mostly respected. That is, until a has-been celebrity comes to stay.
What if you entered an empty rehearsal hall and suddenly an audience appears? Joseph Ste-Marie brings his experimental scripted/improvised one-man show, This Show is Broken back to the stage! This remount blends the 2021 Digital Theatre production from the Montreal FRINGE Festival and the original 2015 production at the 2nd annual Shortstanding Festival. Ste-Marie must perform his show as he explores his life, struggles, missteps, and tries to show that it’s not too late to pursue your dreams…. However, Joseph is challenged to be honest with himself so his show can be authentic as possible without being blinded by ambition.
