New Waterford Boy: A Ceilidh Storytelling Theatre with Music

There will be a second performance on Sunday Aug 13th – 2:00 PM.

“Part East Coast kitchen party, part inspiring storytelling, get ready to sing along with New Waterford Boy!

New Waterford Boy is an intimate, upbeat kitchen party where Richie Wilcox tells personal tales of being Rita MacNeil’s nephew for a week, conquering first kisses at junior high dances, the inner workings of Canadian Idol (he was in the top 11 of Season One) and more, as he also belts Cape Breton classic tunes from Allister MacGillivray, the Rankin Family, Rita MacNeil, and John Allan Cameron. Backed by his band made up of top-notch talented friends, the two-act show pays tribute to traditional Cape Breton culture while making way for the people of Cape Breton today, here and now.”
