January will be quiet after our New Year’s celebrations, but we’ll kick off the new year with a country music cabaret.

Starting January 30, the Thousand Islands Playhouse will present the Classic Country- Cabaret Music Series. The series will run until February 1. Friday and Saturday the show starts at 8pm and finishes at 10pm. Sunday the show starts at 2:30pm.

Country music is extremely popular in this area and folks have been asking for more. We will again celebrate the songs and music from those classic country performers Hand Williams, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, June Carter, Kenny Rogers and Shania Twain.

Tickets: $25 Click here to buy online, or call the Box Office at 613-382-7020
