The Songbird of Vienna at the Vancouver Fringe Festival - it's happening now!

A big thanks to all those people who have asked about the Vancouver Fringe Festival and my upcoming performances. A fringe festival is a theatre festival for small shows, many of them solo shows that don't fit into "big" theatre.  It is a little bit like "off off Broadway".  Most of the shows at the Vancouver Fringe Festival are located at theatres actually on Granville Island but there are also a couple of theatres not right on the island . Nine shows including mine will be appearing at the little theatre called Studio 16 which is part of the Maison de la Francophonie at 1555 - 1551 W 7th Avenue, Vancouver. It's very close by, just a 5 -minute walk.

The schedule for me is:
Thursday, Sept 8th - 6:20pm - Opening night!!
Saturday, Sept 10th - 4:35pm
Monday, Sept 12th - 3:30pm
Tuesday, Sept 13th - 10:20pm
Thursday, Sept 15th - 8:05pm
Saturday, Sept 17th - 6:20pm
Tickets can be bought online or right at the door.

The Songbird of Vienna is a wonderful story. It is 50 minutes long, heart-warming and family friendly. It begins like this:
It's the late 1800's in Vienna, the glittering capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Famed as a musical powerhouse, the city has been home to such spectacular talents past and present as Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert and Strauss. Hopeful young composers flock there but not all of them find success. One of the unlucky is Franz. Having given up, his dreams crushed, Franz is waiting for a coach to take him back to his hometown when he discovers a baby bird in distress. He rescues this tiny spark of life. One thing leads to another and through this small act of kindness his fortunes change. Luck, hard work and inspiration, love, friendship and confidence all play their roles on the way to a happy ending. This is a story for anyone who has ever felt the joy of rescuing an animal and seeing it thrive - and it's a story for anyone who has ever dreamed a dream and tried to make that dream come true.

Yesterday was the big rehearsal at the theatre. The 7th is the opening night party for the festival and the next day is my opening night.  Wish me luck - and if you know anybody in Vancouver who enjoys theatre, please spread the word.

Looking for Old Cloth Wallets

I'm looking for some old cloth wallets only to train our pup to retrieve them. Don't want her to get a taste for leather. I have one inexpensive leather one with a few teeth marks I can exchange with someone.

Public Access AED for Pilkey Point Neighbourhood

With greatly appreciated support by the Thetis Island Community Fund, a new Public Access AED has now been installed outside on the Pilkey Point Firehall at Lot 207 (between Valdez and Trincomali Roads).  

If you witness a cardiac arrest, have someone immediately dial 9-1-1 and the Ambulance Dispatcher will direct the caller to initiate CPR (middle of chest, push hard and fast, about 110 times a minute).  Grab the Public Access Defibrillator from the alarmed cabinet on the outside corner of the firehall and return to the patient. The unit has visual and audio instructions, and the Dispatcher will also guide you through the procedures.  Continue CPR and follow the Dispatcher’s instructions until the fire department arrives and the FRs take over.

Don’t hesitate…you can make a difference!
