LPAC welcomes Say It Ain't So Theatre, presenting Carla Falk and Derek Olinek in "On A First Name Basis" for three nights in the SHUNDA Theatre!
Say It Ain’t So Theatre is proud to bring you this heartwarming and funny play written by Canada’s premiere playwright, Norm Foster.  A story about a successful, but reclusive spy novelist who discovers he knows nothing about his maid of 28 years.  She, however, knows everything about him.  This is a love story, social commentary, and a mystery wrapped in witty dialogue and vivid imagery. 

David, a successful novelist with writer's block, has received some devastating news he's kept to himself. Lucy, his housekeeper of twenty-eight years, has her own secret that she's afraid to admit. As Lucy is getting ready to end her shift, David invites her to stay and have a drink, curious about the woman who's been tending to his house all these years. But as the night sets in and the drinks start to flow, secrets reveal themselves, for better or worse.
Say It Ain’t So Theatre began in Edmonton in the 1990s.  One of the founding members, Carla Falk, brought the company to Red Deer in the early 2010s and, along with actors Fred Andersen and Tim Newcomb staged many successful productions of A Bench in the Sun throughout Central Alberta by catering to, and performing, primarily in rural community halls.  After taking a hiatus, Say It Ain’t So is proud to be relaunching with On A First Name Basis.

Carla FalkTheatre has been part of Carla’s life since she was a teenager.  She has appeared on stage in numerous productions for Central Alberta Theatre, Ignition Theatre, and Say It Ain’t So Theatre.  Acting credits away from the stage include commercials, series tv, and independent films.  As artistic director, Carla is pleased to be relaunching Say It Ain’t So Theatre with this fantastic Norm Foster play, On A First Name Basis.
Derek OlinekDerek has had roles in commercials and movies, but most of his acting credits over the last 32 years have been live theatre.  He has appeared on stage with Central Alberta Theatre, Ignition Theatre, Prime Stock, Theatre, and RD Players Breaking Cover series.  He is thrilled to be joining Say It Ain’t So Theatre’s production of Norm Foster’s hilarious and touching On A First Name Basis.

Join us for a hilariously entertaining night at LPAC on March 9th for The Arrogant Worms, brought to you by Sunrise RV!
The Arrogant Worms have spent over three decades making fun of a big dumb world. Their songs have been played on the radio, the internet, and in outer space (on the space shuttle Endeavour). The Worms began at Queen’s University in 1991 when some members of the student cabaret group, The Queen’s Players, started writing songs and sketches for the campus radio station CFRC. Soon the group became The Arrogant Worms (Chris Patterson, Mike McCormick, and Trevor Strong) who have since toured ceaselessly across Canada (and select other parts of the world), released 13 albums, and recorded with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra. Their song, The Last Saskatchewan Pirate, has been covered by bands such as Captain Tractor and The Longest Johns, and their Happy Happy birthday song is a viral sensation with over one hundred million views of the various fan videos on YouTube. More than thirty years after they began, The Arrogant Worms continue to provide tuneful and silly escapism for everyone who needs it.

Join us for a literary evening with award-winning novelist and creative nonfiction writer, Ali Bryan as she shares some of her published works with time for Q&A. 
Artist Statement
I write for and about the people. I write about the what-ifs, the wtfs and the wait-a-minutes of every day. I write about the downtrodden, the broken-hearted, the vulnerable. About lovers and losers, mothers and mutineers. I write about prisoners with daddy issues, and sad auctioneers and single dads and feminist kids. I write about immigrant shopkeepers and big men in cargo shorts and old women soccer players and abusive grandpas. I write about me. I write you.
Juxtaposition and ambivalence influence the genre I use to tell story, so I write poems about wrestling and short prose about big men. Long form creative nonfiction to reveal tiny truths, full-length novels to document single days. Quick personal essays that burn slow. Other people’s memoirs.
My work is strongly influenced by philosophy, existentialism, cognitive psychology, biology, neuroscience and geography. Dialogue, humour and defamiliarization are my strengths. I write stories that aren’t about issues but exist because of them. Thematically, my work explores the art and horror of being human, and the grief of living and losing. Hope and despair are at the core of my storytelling. I write what rattles, arouses, enrages, enlightens, and disturbs me. I write about the fight to survive, the fight to exist, to be heard, to be understood, to be valued. To be. My priority as an artist is to challenge perspectives, generate connections and make people feel seen.
Writer Cathal Kelly says, “it’s the banalities, that when you string a few thousand of them together creates a life.” It’s also through the banalities that big ideas become accessible, universal, and relatable. So, my stories take place at karaoke competitions and estate sales and school playgrounds and my childhood home. I’m provoked by the mundane and the ordinary and pairing humor with pathos is a hallmark of my work. “It’s much easier to write a solemn book than a funny book. It’s harder to make people laugh than it is to make them cry. People are always on the verge of tears.” (Fran Lebowitz). I do both.

Her essays have been longlisted for the CBC Canada Writes Creative Nonfiction prize, shortlisted for the Alberta Literary Awards Jon Whyte Memorial Essay Award and nominated for the Pushcart Prize. She won the 2020 Howard O’Hagan Award for Short Story and is a Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Arts Awards Emerging Artist recipient. Her debut YA novel, The Hill, was released in 2021 and was longlisted for the 2021 Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize. Her short-form work has been published in literary journals and magazines in Canada, the US and the UK and has longlisted for the 2022 Commonwealth Short Story Prize. She recently served as the Author in Residence at the Calgary Public Library and as the Edna Staebler Laurier University digital Writer-in-Residence. She has three novels forthcoming in 2023: The Crow Valley Karaoke Championships (Henry Holt), Coq (Freehand Books) and The City (Dottir Press). She lives in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies on Treaty 7 Territory, where she has a wrestling room in her garage and regularly gets choked out by her family.
Thrift shops, mixed martial arts, pigeons, bagpipes, mountains, books, ska, history, Survivor, graffiti, the Olympics, France, punk, tumbleweeds, the paintings of Kim Dorland and Jean Smith and the films of Wes Anderson are a few of her favourite things. Before turning to writing full time, Ali worked in marketing and communications, arts management and as a personal trainer.

The first concert of our 24-25 Concert Series! Welcoming to Lacombe Performing Arts Centre, Beau Wheeler!
Join us Friday, October 4thDoors: 7:00 PMShow 7:30 PM
"One of Vancouver's punchiest indie singers." Fish Griwkowsky, Edmonton Sun

Beau Wheeler is a queer non-binary composer and singer based in Vancouver, Canada. Blessed with a set of pipes that would be the envy of Torch and Twang era kd lang or a young Robert Plant, Beau is about to release two new albums of music that capture the breadth and diversity of their musical vision. Theirs is a music that encompasses a wide spectrum of human experience. With songs that touch on love, loss and redemption, and an unflagging ability to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again, Beau, who recently came out to the world as trans, is one of Canada’s brightest lights and an artist to watch out for.
Their music pulls no punches as it shines a light on gender, surviving cancer, and the all too human experience of love in a way that turns the dark and sour stuff of life into something beautiful and hopeful. Beau’s songs remind us that ‘we’ve all been there’ and that no matter how low you are feeling that there’s hope. You’re not alone. Pain and joy form equal parts of life’s equation. The essential magic of Beau’s work lies in this unflinching ability to fearlessly open up and bring a room full of strangers together to share and heal from the vulnerabilities that we all feel.
Adrian Mack of ‘The Georgia Straight’ nailed it when he described Beau’s voice as ‘effortlessly big.’ A true force of nature, Beau’s singing tears down walls and dissolves barriers as they effortlessly channel all they’ve got into each syllable and phrase of every vocal performance. They can sweep from an incendiary roar to a barely audible whisper in the space of a breath. The thrill of immersing yourself in the work of an artist who has such a deep, natural sense of dynamic tension, counterpoint and emotional phrasing is difficult to communicate. Better to simply jump in and be taken on a journey through the unique sonic universe Beau creates in each of their songs.
Beau’s songs and life are inseparable. Experience and loss have forged an indomitably positive spirit that is most powerfully communicated in a live performance. If the essence of rock n roll is about taking the leap and risking everything to be yourself, Beau is certainly one of the most honest performers in popular music today. As a queer artist, they pull no punches as they risk everything in a ‘without a net’ high-wire act of a live show that has few equals. Beau’s musical roots go deep. As an artist whose grandfather played piano with Nat King Cole and Sammy Davis Jr., they are aware that a good song is a good song, regardless of style and tempo.
Over the years, Beau has performed at the Vancouver Juno Awards (2018), recorded and toured with several of their own bands as well as contributing vocals to ‘A Small Wonder’ by A.C. Newman of the New Pornographers, and has shared the stage with many groundbreaking artists including Dan Mangan, Shane Koyczan and Tanya Tagaq.
Beau’s music is the light at the end of the tunnel, a message of hope in dark times. Whether performing solo in a one-room wooden church as part of ArtsWells or with their band ‘The Black Salt Sea’ in larger theatre settings, showcasing at Folk Alliance, or live-streaming for the Philadelphia Folk Society, vulnerable humanity exudes from everything Beau communicates. Bridges are crossed. Wounds are healed. Warm, immediate, and illuminating, the light Beau creates is one you want to bask in.

Wendy Meeres
I have always been an artist, from my youngest days to my current life. I now focus on making lampwork beads, jewelry from the beads and painting. I paint in watercolour, acrylics and mixed media. I also love to teach, what is better than sharing your passion and getting others to enjoy creating art and appreciating the arts.
My work celebrates colour and patterns found in the world around me. I am often inspired by my travels both close to home and around the world.

OPERATION WAREHOUSE PRESENTS: SHAY DE CASTROSHAY DE CASTROHailing from a city with not one electronic music club to speak of, Shay De Castro has beat all odds to become one of the most thrilling techno talents from the North America in the last decade. Cutting her teeth on Mexico’s thriving underground, the US-based powerhouse evokes thrills from the grittiest warehouses to the biggest clubs in the world. Her talents have garnered key support from every corner of the dance music spectrum, from Amelie Lens, Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, ANNA, Nicole Moudaber, and many more all endorsing the young artist’s productions. 
 
Packed with a club-ready vibe that radiates vibrant energy,Shay’s success was fast-tracked when Factory 93 signed her track, ‘Rapture’ to their MODULE compilation early 2023. This debut soon led to a follow-up single, ‘Memento’, proved to be one of her biggest-selling tracks and was added to the ‘Best of Factory 2023’ compilation alongside artists like Space 92, Nicole Moudaber, Jay Lumen, POPOF, and many other techno giants. Followed up by a chart-topping release on mau5trap, she manages to straddle the line between the underground and commercial, seemingly without trying.On the back of an ever-expanding accomplishment list, Shay has been managing a busy tour schedule.
 
 She made her first appearance at the legendary Sisyphos Berlin, played Beyond Wonderland alongside the biggest artists in techno, and joined Eli Brown on 4 sold-out tour dates throughout the West Coast. 2024 will kick off with her headlining various dates in the the Americas and Europe, including more appearances on Factory 93 and mau5trap.Named by Beatport’s Beatportal as ‘techno’s new queen’,the world will only be seeing more of De Castro in the near future.
