The Astor Theatre is pleased to present this special choral performance at The Trinity Anglican Church, in partnership with Musique Royale.
Capella Regalis Men and Boys Choir, founded in Nova Scotia by Nick Halley in 2010, builds upon the best aspects of the centuries-old European tradition of men and boys church choirs.

Capella Regalis has released three CDs: Love Came Down: Carols for Christmas (2019), Greater Love (2017) and My Eyes for Beauty Pine (2014).
The concert will highlight favourites from the sacred and secular choral canon.
Tickets are available through The Astor box office or online from Ticketpro and are priced at $25 in advance or $30 on the day of the show.
The concert will take place at the Trinity Anglican Church – doors open at 6:30 and seating is general, so arrive early to claim your seat.
Here is a video of what you can expect on Tuesday 24th May in Liverpool:
Just at a time when people are searching out authentic cultural voices, who tell strong stories and write well-crafted songs, Rankin has made an unapologetically East Coast folk-rock record. It’s his take on what it means to live and breathe Maritime tradition, culture and music, but with a raw, unsentimental and current edge. “I’m putting the party back in the kitchen” quips Rankin.
It’s called Moving East because that’s exactly what Jimmy’s done. He’s moved back to Nova Scotia after seven years living and working in Nashville. Hooking up with fellow Nova Scotian Joel Plaskett as producer, he’s made an album appealing to young and old alike, with songs running the gamut from gritty pub tunes to soulful ballads all featuring great storytelling, and fine songwriting.
Join Jimmy and his selected guests when he brings his Kitchen Party to Liverpool on May 28th.
Tickets are $40 and go on sale on Friday February 4th at 11am in the box office and online.

Filmmaker Paul Saltzman retraces his journey of 50 years ago when he spent a life-changing time with the Beatles at the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram on the banks of the Ganges River. In 1968, he discovered his own soul, learned meditation, which changed his life, and hung out with John, Paul, George and Ringo. Fifty years later, he finds ‘Bungalow Bill’ in Hawaii; connects with David Lynch about his own inner journey; as well as preeminent Beatles historian, Mark Lewisohn; Academy Award nominated film composer, Laurence Rosenthal; and Pattie and Jenny Boyd. And much of this is due to Saltzman’s own daughter, Devyani, reminding him that he had put away and forgotten these remarkably intimate photographs of that time in 1968.
Narration: Morgan Freeman
Executive Producer: David Lynch (among others)

Original works by more than 20 Nova Scotian artists will be exhibited this summer at the Town Hall Arts and Cultural Centre in Liverpool’. The “Views from Here” show features images that reflect the natural world experienced on the South Shore, in all its diversity and seasons.
“The response from artists for this show is exceptional,” said Cathy Pincombe, show organizer. “‘Views from Here’ has attracted the largest number of artists we have ever exhibited in a group show. Among them are 12 who are showing their work at THACC for the first time.”
The “Views from Here” show will be displayed in THACC’s two gallery spaces. Images include original paintings in a variety of media, as well as photography and fibre art. Prints and cards by a number of the artists will also be available in the Astor Theatre’s art shop.
The “Views from Here” art show is open 11 a.m. – 4 p.m., Wednesday to Saturday, until September 10.
