THE BOWIE LIVES - THE DAVID BOWIE EXPERIENCE 2022 RETURNS TO THE REGENT THEATRE IN OSHAWA JUNE 3 at 8 p.m. Presented by: Blackrose Entertainment.
It's been over two years since The Bowie Lives sold out the Regent Theatre in Oshawa, in March 2020, and they are excited to return!
"5 Stars! Unbelievable!" says Richard Crouse, Host of CTV PopLife. “By far, the best & coolest Bowie Tribute I’ve seen!” says Sam Grosso, Cadillac Productions, Toronto Ontario. They're talking about "The Bowie Lives" Canada's most sensational Bowie Spectacular! Michael Bell is an award-winning vocalist who channels the sound and styles of David Bowie, & with the help of an all-star band, theatre and costumes capture the imagination of fans young & old.
Michael's 1st theatrical production "ChangesAllBowie" toured the "A circuit" in the late '80s. He hung up his "Ziggy" in the early '90s and never imagined professionally performing Bowie again! After David's untimely death on January 10, 2016, his calling returned, as did the industry interest. Contacting long-time musical director Michael Beauclerc, they began auditioning players to fill out a band capable of performing some of Rock's most challenging material. The Bowie Lives bring all the hits to the stage, from Space Oddity to Lazarus, and everything in between.
The Bowie Lives, pre-show includes the Bowie Bazaar; collectibles bought and sold, Bowie make-up and costume props to help you get your “Bowie On”, photo opportunities, and more! Come in costume dressed as your favorite David!
For more information: www.thebowielives.com
Michael is also the subject of an upcoming documentary film “Being David Bowie” slated for release in 2022.

Light refreshments will be provided and all attendees will be entered into a draw for a copy of the book that inspired the movie; “Penguin the Magpie: The Odd Little Bird who Saved a Family” by Cameron Bloom.
Based on the best-selling book of the same name, Penguin Bloom tells the story of Sam Bloom (Academy Award® nominated Naomi Watts), a young mother whose world is turned upside down after a shocking, near-fatal accident leaves her paralyzed. Sam's husband (The Walking Dead’s Andrew Lincoln), her three young boys and her mother (Academy Award® nominated Jacki Weaver), are struggling to adjust to their new situation when an unlikely ally enters their world in the form of an injured baby magpie they name Penguin. The bird's arrival is a welcome distraction for the Bloom family, eventually making a profound difference on Sam's life, teaching her how to live again.
“Watts gives one of her best performances in years” – Dustin Chase, Galveston Daily

The 52nd annual Canoe the Nonquon is taking place on Saturday, June 4th in Port Perry. The race is sanctioned by the Ontario Marathon Canoe and Kayak Racing Association (OMCKRA). The race was started by the Lake Scugog Historical Society as a fundraiser for the Scugog Shores Museum Village. Over 40 volunteers help plan and organize the race each year.
The course starts on the twisty Nonquon River. For the first few kilometers there are many tight bends to practice your rudder turns. There are also some dead end channels along the river section (when in doubt always keep right). There is 12 km of river paddling followed by an 8 km sprint along the shores of Lake Scugog to the finish line.
Participants race the clock and can start anytime between 8:00 - 10:30am on Saturday morning. This is a well attended race with a long-standing history in the community. Amateurs and professionals, young and older, may compete in a large number of competitive or recreational categories. Shuttle vans are available to take participants back to their cars upon concluding the race at either Robinglade Park (river only) or Palmer Park (full course).
