Strike centennial
Manitoba’s unions and Manitoba building trades presented the Winnipeg General Strike centennial gala dinner on May 15 at the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg. Attended by almost 1,300 people, the event was held 100 years to the day after the strike began and featured songs from Strike! The Musical, performed by composer-playwright Danny Schur and performers from the cast of the upcoming performance of the play at Rainbow Stage, and by singer Lisa Bell from Stand!, the upcoming film adaptation of the musical. The event also featured a performance by Steve Patterson of CBC’s The Debaters.
