Toronto, June 25, 2008 : North America's longest running seniors showcase is pulling out all the stops for their upcoming 20th Anniversary performance at the illustrious Roy Thomson Hall from August 12 to August 15, 2008. This celebratory performance will inaugurate a new crop of boomer performers: special guests that boast some of the country's best known vocalists! Jubilee fans, old and new, can also look forward to a 20th Anniversary celebration replete with all the same high octane entertainment enjoyed over the past 20 years. There's something for everyone at the Jubilee -- from classical and country to pop; choirs, soloists and bands; show stopping showgirls, breath-taking ballroom numbers, gutsy tangos, tap and clogging to comedians and vaudevillians that leave you roaring with laughter -- this Broadway-style extravaganza doesn't let up until the last step of the astounding finale.
Included in the blockbuster 20th Anniversary line-up is the award-winning vocalist and actress Louise Pitre, who was nominated for a Tony Award for her role on Broadway in Mamma Mia in 2002. World-renowned lyrical tenor Mark DuBois also makes his first appearance at the Jubilee. Folk legends include Crabtree & Mills featuring Canadian roots music pioneers Joanne Crabtree and Paul Mills; and singer/songwriter Brent Titcombe pay tribute to the musical renaissance of the 1960's Yorkville era.
