Count Basie Orchestra
Celebrating its 80th anniversary, the Count Basie Orchestra remains one of the greatest big band jazz orchestras in music history.

The orchestra has performed for royalty around the world, appeared in countless films and television shows, and has won 18 Grammy Awards – more than any other orchestra.

Sci-Fi Double Feature
Inspired by action-adventure B-movies from the 1960s, Sci-Fi Double Feature is a magical collision of puppetry and film, scored with an original soundtrack. A true all-ages show, this one-of-a-kind performance features two fast-paced puppet shows captured live and simultaneously projected onto a big screen, linked by an original stop-motion animated film. Full of wit, anarchy and whimsy, Yukon-based Ramshackle Theatre provides a behind-the-scenes look at their clever puppetry, dynamic camera techniques and original sound effects to create an experience unlike any other.
This performance is presented in our intimate backstage studio space.
