THE KING OF LIES: Stories from Syria
Clare Murphy's One-woman Storytelling Show

The King of Syria, obsessed with deception, hosts a lying contest in his court and every year chops off the head of anyone who fails to tell him a new lie. With the piles of severed heads growing, perhaps only a storyteller can stop the King.

"Absolutely bubbling with joy." CBC

Vancouver's Barbara Adler (formerly of The Fugitives) unleashes the accordion on the
Proud Animal Spring Break Western Canada Tour.  Winnipeg audiences can catch the
band's brazen mix of smart indie rock and punky art pop, in concert with Flying Fox
and the Hunter Gatherers.
