"This R&B take on Handel's classic Messiah is one of our new favourite holiday traditions." (Toronto Life) 20 years ago, Quincy Jones produced Handel's Messiah, A Soulful Celebration which refigured the original score with Afro-American heritage and music. Ten years ago, Ballet Creole began performing Soulful Messiah, artistic director Patrick Parson's choreographic response to that spectacular music. Today, the show has grown into a full-length performance of jazz, tap, ballet, modern and Afro-Caribbean dance to this powerful uplifting and downright soulful holiday music. Featuring guest tap dancer and Niagara native, David Cox (formerly of STOMP). For tickets and more information, please visit www.arts.brocku.ca.
