Hey everyone! Just putting this on your radar for tonight—In Conversation is playing at Gate House Theatre at 7:30 PM. A friend of mine saw them on Quadra Island earlier this week and said they absolutely crushed it. It’s live tap dancing fused with jazz and R&B.
​Tickets are super reasonable ($15–$25, kids 13 & under free). Who’s down to go?
