It's 1955. Into a square little town in a square little state rides Chad, a great-lookin', motorcyclin', guitar-playin', leather-jacketed roustabout who changes everything and everyone he meets. Loosely based on Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, this hip-swiveling, lip-curling musical fantasy will have you jumpin' out of your blue suede shoes with the hits of Elvis Presley, including classics like "Heartbreak Hotel," "Hound Dog," "Jailhouse Rock," and "Don’t Be Cruel."

Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.

Community Event - Peterborough/Lindsay - BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER Benefit Concert

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

As the New Canadians Centre (NCC) sees an exponential increase in the need for its services, the Peterborough
Concert Band (PCB) is joining it in a fundraising concert with all benefit dollars to be donated to NCC. The concert
will take place at Peterborough’s Market Hall on October 27th from 2:30 to 4:00 pm. In 2023-2024, more than 2,000
newcomers received assistance from the NCC. This was a 50% increase over the previous year and was the highest
number of clients ever. The number included 1216 new clients.
While Canada remains a global leader for welcoming newcomers, we are sobered by the local and global
challenges and conflicts affecting all of us and often the newcomer community even more acutely. The services the
NCC provides to clients are making resettlement in Peterborough a little more bearable. The top 10 countries from
which newcomers arrive are Syria, Ukraine, India, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Philippines, Iran, Mexico, and Pakistan.
The Peterborough Concert Band is one of the longest-running concert bands in Canada. Their Juno-nominated
conductor and composer, Saman Shahi, will lead the band through an exciting program of selections ranging from
classical to contemporary. Please join us for a celebratory reception hosted by NCC, working with local
Peterborough restaurants.
Don’t miss out on this wonderful opportunity to help the New Canadians Centre bring people together, and to make a
difference in our community! If you are a local business, please sponsor the concert or advertise in the concert
program. Following the performance there will be a reception organized by NCC. Tickets $34 (streaming $15) (both
prices include HST and fees).
Tickets are available through the Market Hall box office, or use the QR code on the poster, or online purchase at
