Local Entertainment

Everyone knows that all the cool cats are doing it. Yep, the cool cats are most definitely reading Sootoday's 4-day Arts and Entertainment outlook to see what they will be doing for the weekend.

Beginning this Thursday, the Art Gallery of Algoma will be featuring a special exhibition of prison beds (amongst other recycled objects).

Sault Musical Comedy Guild will be their Spring Show, "A Celebration of Youth," an original musical revue of numbers from well known Broadway Musicals, directed by Lesley Walsh-Tibben with several of our cities talented youth peforming the numbers.

We at the Sootoday Arts and Entertainment page were feeling a bit down about not being able to provide you, our faithful readers, with your Thursday fix of a local entertainment listing.

The Sault Ste. Marie chapter of Amnesty International, in partnership with Loplops and the Art Gallery of Algoma, is presenting "A Celebration of Hope", a collection of works by local artists, musicians and poets.

Something special will be happening at Loplops Lounge on the second Friday of every month -- a Zodiac party. What is a Zodiac party, you ask? It is a get together to celebrate the characteristics of people according to their astrological signs.

The Downbeat Lounge is bringing in a bunch of down-home, good natured, bright boys known as the Swiftys for your entertainment. The Swiftys are a band that has shared the stage with Lucinda Williams, The Sadies, and Fred Eaglesmith.

What could be more delicious than a twinkie? Just ask a twinkie delivery man.

"Absolutely Unreal", an art exhibit by Evan Penny, will be held at the Art Gallery of Algoma from May 5th until July 2nd.

For those who don't know Joe Avati, he is the guy from "Down Under" who tells funny stories about the Nonni (grandparents) "watering the concrete" and all sorts of true and hilarious stories about growing up as an Italian in an English-speaking count
