SUMMARY:Hey Viola! (Venables Theatre)
DESCRIPTION:Hey Viola!\, is a musical exploration of Canadian Civil Rights hero\, Viola Desmond and could not be more relevant in this time of Civil Rights\, Black Lives Matter\, and Women’s Rights movements.\nIn Hey Viola!\, Vancouver songstress and actor Krystle Dos Santos\, with the support of local musicians Chris Davis\, Steven Charles and Jen Lewin brings the life of Viola Desmond to the stage using the dynamic and inspirational music that filled the home of this trailblazer of the civil rights movement. Using the musical format enriches the telling of her amazing and powerful story\, ultimately an important Canadian story. But who is Viola Desmond…? other than the newest face on Canada’s ten-dollar bill. She is best known for her courage in refusing to leave the whites-only section of Nova Scotia’s Roseland cinema in 1946\, a decision that made history\, but she was also a feminist and beauty product icon. What was the fire within this successful black Canadian businesswoman that gave her the courage and confidence to stand up to systemic racial injustices in Canada?
