Frostbite Circus presents this year’s brand new production of Heartache Hotel. Heartache Hotel is a theatrical circus show like Winnipeg has never seen before. Andrea Del Campo, Joe Ackerman and Stephen Halas take us through an eerie old hotel where each room is haunted by incredible acts, puppetry, pole art, contortion, hand balance,aerial, juggling, unicycle, live music, dance, etc. Don’t miss out. Some mature content not recommended for small children.

Slattern

In honour of my “Fleeting” video premiering tonight at the Núna – now Arts Festival, I have put up the single as a free download on my band camp page. I will leave the download up until the end of the festival (next weekend). I wrote the song for my mother, who passed away two years ago, and who was an artist.

The video is showing at the Winnipeg Art Gallery tonight alongside new works by Erika MacPherson and Jaimz Asmundson.
Suffering loss of our mothers, we all, unbeknownst to one another, were drawn to the land of fire and ice to translate our grief into art.
*This event is free to the public*
