--------------------------------------------
Join us for an evening of alternative country rock and humor all in the same show with the great Canadian alt-country-rocker, The Fred Eaglesmith Show.

Chrissie Dickinson of the Chicago Tribune describes him best: “His rootsy musical narratives are filled with heart and packed with eccentric and authentic characters.” A typical Fred Eaglesmith show includes two or three songs interspersed with lengthy comic monologues. Fred’s songs are about trains, machines, horses and rural life, dogs and drinking but, at the end of the day, they are all about the human condition. Monologue topics include life on the road, what’s going on at the ranch back in Ontario and stories about crossing the U.S.–Canada border.

Fred will perform with singer and multi-instrumentalist Tif Ginn, his wife and artistic partner. #GETTOTHE Shea on time! No opening act.

Exciting News for A Happening IV: Leviathan

Cloudgaze and Eggtooth Productions are thrilled to announce that we have received a generous grant from the Markham-Nathan Fund for Social Justice to support our 2024 Immersive Arts Festival, “A Happening IV: Leviathan.”

This festival will transform the Shea Theater into an exploration of theme, hosting installations, music, theatrical performances, and movement pieces, featuring the collective contributions of over 30 local artists. Audiences will experience otherworldly environments and narratives inspired by folklore, fairy tales, horror motifs, American literature, and the mythos of the Old Testament, all of which delve into the central question guiding the festival: "What does it mean to encounter something greater than yourself and to be consumed by it?" Through this theme, we explore how a community reemerges and imagines itself after destruction and transformation.

With the support of the Markham-Nathan Fund, we are excited to create an event that complicates perspectives and fosters meaningful dialogue. We are grateful for this partnership and for the work of the Markham-Nathan Fund for Social Justice.

Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for their vital support this year.We'd also like to thank the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for their support in the form of a Flexible Funding grant. We couldn't do this work without you!
