Hey there, time traveller!

Come From Away, the Canadian-produced musical that won a Tony Award and has been a hit on Broadway since 2017, returns to Winnipeg Oct. 25-30, 2022 at the Centennial Concert Hall.
Tickets go on sale to groups of 10 or more starting today by emailing Canada.Groups@BroadwayAcrossCanada.ca or by calling 1-800-889-8457. Information about single tickets will be released in the spring.
The musical by Irene Sankoff and David Hein centres on Gander, N.L., and how it welcomed 7,000 travellers from around the world on Sept. 11, 2001 after air traffic to the United States was diverted to the town in the wake of terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C.
The Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre produced Come From Away in January 2018, less than a year after it opened in New York.
A more shocking style of theatre and music, namely Alice Cooper, will play the Canada Life Centre on April 9, 2022.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.ca, although there are various presales that begin today. Ticket prices haven’t been released.
California rockers Buckcherry are also on the bill.
Cooper, a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer who is described as the godfather of shock rock, stormed on the music scene in the early 1970s with hits such as School’s Out and I’m Eighteen. In February he released a new album, Detroit Stories, and it reached No. 1 on the Billboard album sales chart upon its release.
