One of the most important of our family Christmas traditions is the Stuart McLean Christmas show. While we loved the intimate setting of Convocation Hall, vs the Sony Centre, if you can get seats in the front section (book really early, folks), then its almost as good.
This year's show featured two new stories, one old favourite, a really lovely vignet of the perfect Christmas Carol mixed tape. And a very contemporary expidition of Dave with his now adult daughter. It's incredible how Stuart McLean can continue to come up with new ways for Dave to embarass his family in his bumbling, lovable way.
A favourite of the show is also the musical talent showcased, some old and some new. We were treated to amazing performances from a 17 year old contest winner and Reid Jamieson, a recent winner for his own composition. We brought home his CD and Jerusalem, the new CD of classical Christmas carols from the piano player. The Vinylettes, 3 lovely ladies, mesmerized with their beautiful voices.
