Thane Dunn’s
ELVIS – The Comeback King

Saturday, September 28, join World Champion Elvis tribute artist Thane Dunn and his Cadillac Kings as they recreate Elvis Presley’s now historic 1968 Comeback Special: Elvis, That’s the Way It Is.

In 1968, after years of making movies and being out of the public eye, Elvis set out to show the world that he was still at the top of his game. Clad in black leather, he performed all of his original songs in a raw, over-the-top performance which is now part of rock and roll history.

In tribute to this legendary performance, Thane Dunn & the Cadillac Kings made sure to cover all the bases. Dunn has mastered the raspy quality of Presley’s 1968 voice, and all of his stage attire is made from the exact patterns used by Presley. His black leather suit is a carbon copy of the original.

Get ready to hear Thane Dunn as Elvis, the Comeback King, singing everything from “Hound Dog” to “Mystery Train/Tiger Man” to “Blue Suede Shoes” and the monumental powerhouse song “If I Can Dream.”

You’ll find Dunn has the uncanny ability to transport his audience back in time. His portrayal of Elvis is eerily authentic, and his tribute work has received endorsements from several people who worked and performed with the real Elvis.

“Thane Dunn is the closest thing I’ve ever seen to Elvis and if you never saw Elvis you need to see Thane Dunn,” Bill Baize (member of the Stamps Quartet who performed with Elvis from 1971 – 1976).

For fans of Elvis, this is a fun, must-see show for the entire family.

Chris Gibbs Drops the Accent

ignorance.jpg

Playhouse favourite Chris Gibbs is back!

 
With his hilarious show A Legal Alien– a ridiculously funny performance involving everything from stand-up to acrobatics to balloon animals!
From England, the Land of William Shakespeare, to Canada, the Land of William Shatner. Chris Gibbs first came to Canada in 1995. Since then he’s moved to Canada permanently, married a Canadian, and made a young Canadian. He’s met a Canadian who apologized for saving his life, been given more advice on bear avoidance than anyone could possibly need, and has spent more time than strictly neccessary wondering what it really means to ‘drop your accent’.
Chris Gibbs is at the Victoria Playhouse September 5 – 8.
