It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley — 7:00pm

Inner Space Book Party — 7:00 pm
Please join us to celebrate the release of Jakub Szamalek's book "Inner Space" (HarperCollins).
Doors open 6:30pm
Start time 7:00pm
Jakub Szamalek lives in Wolfville but is best known for his international video game writing credentials. He is Narrative Director at Rebel Wolves game studio. Born in Poland, he studied in the UK, at Oxford and then Cambridge, where he was a Cambridge Gates Scholar. He is an author and the writer behind the international video game bestsellers, including The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, and The Blood of Dawnwalker.
"A wonderfully crafted space thriller. It has everything we loved about The Martian or Gravity, but more psychological depth. It’s also a chilling picture of the Russian mentality and its workings, written by someone who truly understands it. With the resurgent conflict between the East and the West and the return of the threat of totalitarianism, this blockbuster book couldn’t be more timely.”—Zygmunt Miloszewski, bestselling author of Rage and Priceless
American and Russian astronauts are trapped together in the International Space Station as war breaks out in Ukraine and life support functions begin to fail in this action-packed debut technothriller that ripples with the tension and danger of Solaris and Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary.
When an ammonia leak threatens the astronauts on the International Space Station, NASA directs Lucy Poplasky, one of the ISS’s first female commanders, to investigate the cause. Russia has just invaded Ukraine and tensions are running high—could the leak be a brazen act of sabotage?
The Russian cosmonauts aboard deny tampering with the ship’s systems and insist on the issue stems from the American side. As levels of the poisonous gas rise, Lucy’s investigation shatters trust between the Russian and Western crews, exposing deep fissures in the partnership thousands of miles below.
Intense and unrelenting, Inner Space questions what truly draws us to the stars: the urge to explore the unknown, selfish ambition, or an instinct to run away from the entrenched troubles on Earth?

A heartfelt and hilarious story about growing up on the mean streets of Aotearoa (New Zealand) with a sometimes-there-mostly-not Dad. Cian Parker shares her story about reclaiming her heritage when she is unexpectedly introduced to a father and a family she didn’t know existed.
She has teamed up with director and dramaturg Laura Haughey who brings her unique physical approach to storytelling in this vibrant, award-winning piece of devised theatre.
Cian Parker (Ngāpuhi) is an award-winning performer, writer, and theatre maker. She graduated from the University of Waikato in 2018 and has toured her original work extensively. Her accolades include the Ngā Manu Pīrere award at the 2019 Te Waka Toi Awards and the 2020 New Zealand Fringe ‘Most Promising Emerging Artist’ award. She received the 2021 Wellington Theatre ‘New Playwright Award’ and a Springboard Award from The Arts Foundation. Recently, Cian worked as the Company Producer for Aotearoa’s first Deaf and hearing theatre company and co-devised their latest bilingual show Where Our Shadows Meet.

Since her debut at the age of 18, musician, civil rights campaigner and activist Joan Baez has been on stage for over 60 years. For the now 82-year-old, the personal has always been political, and her friendship with Martin Luther King and her pacifism have shaped her commitment. In this biography that opens with her farewell tour, Baez takes stock in an unsparing fashion and confronts sometimes painful memories.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show - 7:00pm
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
PWYC Preview
After becoming engaged, straight-laced couple Brad Majors and Janet Weiss set out to visit their old friend and former professor. En route, a heavy storm leads them to the doors of the secluded and mysterious castle of eccentric scientist Dr. Frank ‘N’ Furter, where they meet his servants and bear witness to his latest experiment. What ensues is a night of pleasure, horror and discovery that will force Brad and Janet to question everything they know.
“Audiences are going to fall in love with the chaos, the camp, the music—and hopefully themselves a little, too,” says Linda Levy Fisk, Co-Director.
Premiering exactly 50 years after the 1975 film, this live-stage rock-musical production honours the original’s defiant spirit. Rocky Horror broke taboos around gender, sexuality, and performance—becoming a cult refuge for outsiders and queer communities for generations. Now, in rural Nova Scotia, queer culture continues to evolve and invite everyone to participate, in direct opposition to growing global tensions, making this production more vital than ever.
“This was the show that made me feel seen as a teenager,” says performer Adrien Lewis, “To be in this show—here in Wolfville—is a full-circle moment.”
After producing LOVE LETTERS in fall 2024 and KRAPP’S LAST TAPE in Spring 2025, this rendition of THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW marks the largest live production of the show in the Annapolis Valley's history - and the first musical produced by Jeremy Banks. It could not have even been considered without the incredible support of audiences, backstage team, and the donated time of incredible theatre talent on stage.
“This isn’t just a musical,” says producer Jeremy Banks. “It’s a celebration of difference and a challenge to the norm. In our version, we’re breaking audience expectations even more than the original—featuring a trans performer in a lead role, gender-bending casting, and a renewed focus on joy, risk, and transformation. It’s everything Rocky Horror should be— absolutely unforgettable.”

Pierre Bensusan — 7:30pm
PIERRE BENSUSAN's "One Guitar, One Voice" 50th Anniversary World Tour stops in Wolfville October 20!
Truly, one of the World’s Great Guitarists!
If World Music means the fusion of traditional, contemporary, jazz, classical and pop music, then Bensusan is one of the most eloquent World Music musicians of our time. A pianist in his beginnings then self-taught on the guitar, the originality of his style makes him one of today’s greatest guitarists and composers for the instrument. Also called “The Prince of DADGAD tuning, winner of the Rose d'Or of the Montreux Festival, elected Best Guitarist (World Music) by the readers of Guitar Player Magazine! His triple album "Encore" won the Grand Prix of the Independent Music Awards in the category Best Live Album... Since his first performances in 1974 in France, the guitarist has sold half a million albums and given thousands of concerts around the globe, both solo and through numerous collaborations.
Pierre Bensusan is an adventurer of unusual lands. His almost “sacred” music is an intimate and orchestral hymn, a solo crossing on a multi-shell Lowden guitar subjected to the natural elements with sound molecules and finger pulp on an ebony fingerboard for open tuning - a unique and transparent technique, under the fingers of an adventurous pilgrim.
“Listening to Pierre's music is rejuvenating. Beside his extraordinary touch and tone, the notes and melody appeal directly to the tender side of our human nature”
-Steve Vai
“This is beautiful... Pierre is one of the GREATS!!!”
-Tommy Emmanuel
With only his steel-string-acoustic guitar – and sometimes his rich, affecting voice – Mr Bensusan can disassemble your heart and hand it back to you restored and renewed. As he did to mine tonight. A true giant.”
-James Volpe Rotondi (former senior editor at Guitar Player Magazine)
