Formed in 1981, The Box emerges in 1982 and dominates the airwaves for ten years straight with nine consecutive hit singles. Four Felix trophies and four gold and platinum records later, the band breaks up from sheer exhaustion in 1992. But constant pressure from the industry for The Box to reunite causes lead singer Jean Marc Pisapia to form a new line-up and hit the stage again but not without new material to present. The Box goes on to release three new albums in 2005, 2009 and 2014 as well as an EP in 2018. The band has been present in festivals and theatres alike ever since. Fifteen years after the reunion and forty years since day one, The Box has no intention to retire!

With a fabled career of forty years, Tom Cochrane has rocked stages as both the lead singer and songwriter for Red Rider, and as the solo act that launched him into the global success he is today.

Comedy superstar Derek Seguin is touring Canada with his hysterical new show to celebrate his 20th year as a professional joke teller. Derek’s Juno- nominated stand-up is always a pure reflection of his dysfunctional life, but naturally seen through his “slightly” twisted looking glass. This show will feature more of his hilarious stories on the challenges of relationships with his girlfriend, his three nearly grown-up children and every-day life in a mixed-up world that he finds peculiar at best. With barely a moment to catch your breath between laughs there is never a dull moment in Derek’s shows and for 20 years audiences have loved him for it, but he loves you more!

One of CBC’s The Debaters’ fan-favorites; people are often surprised at the raw nature of Derek’s stand-up… and at how short he is. If you haven’t seen him live before; come out and discover the many hilarious surprises that his in-person shows are renowned for. No subject is off limits and no rabbit hole too deep.

*Please be advised this performance contains frequent use of strong language and is intended for mature audiences.*

BPAC favourite Classic Albums Live and its roster of A-list musicians from across the country will be performing Led Zeppelin’s Led Zeppelin II exactly as you remember hearing it, note for note, cut for cut.

Led Zeppelin II is the second studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, released on 22 October 1969. The album exhibited the band’s evolving musical style of blues-derived material and their guitar riff-based sound. It has been described as the band’s heaviest album and since its release, various writers and music critics have cited Led Zeppelin II as one of the greatest and most influential albums of all time.

Founded in 2003 by Craig Martin, Classic Albums Live takes the greatest albums and recreates them live on stage – note for note, cut for cut, using the best musicians. “Think of it as a recital,” says Martin, “these albums are historic and stand the test of time.” Forgoing costumes and impersonations, Classic Albums Live has found success in concentrating solely on the music. “We don’t dress up or wear any sort of costume. We just stand there and play. All of our energy is put into the music. We want the performance to sound exactly like the album,” says Martin.
