Once again I have the great honour to be involved in a Fringe Theatre Festival production with Andrea House - one of Edmonton's most beloved singers and actors. The show opens today at 5 PM at the newly rebuilt Varscona Theatre. I'm playing pedal steel. Here is a blurb from the show's Facebook page:

Fringe Schedule Song of the Martingale (Stardust Players) Varscona Theatre

Sunday, Aug. 14 10:30 pm
Monday, Aug. 15 5:00pm
Wednesday, Aug. 17 10:30 pm
Thursday, Aug. 18 3:00 pm

When an ordinary fight between Roy and Ida leads to a life-changing moment, Roy is thrust into an unlikely partnership with his father-in-law. He discovers that life is just like a game of cards: when you are down, you have to take a risk to win.

From the creators of the hit shows "Forget Me Not" and "Valentine's Train", this new radio-style musical adventure is set in the 1950's and features a live seven-piece band playing such hits as "Georgia On My Mind" and "Only You".

Directed by Davina Stewart

Starring: Andrea House, Dana Andersen, Bob Rasko, Francie G. Davies, Paul Morgan Donald, Etta George House.
Musicians: Bob Blair, Chris Bzerzicki, Kathryn MacIntosh, Scott Whetham, Harley Symmington, and Nich Davies.

Music Director and Arrangements by Erik Mortimer
