Story of two Jazz divas
from 30s and 40s
coming to Blyth Theatre
Jazzabel is a performance that
promises to bring you to your feet
applauding for more.
Denise Pelley, a native of London,
Ont., has been touring the US and
Canada this past year with her lat-
est showstopper, Jazzabel.
Now, she's coming to the Blyth
Theatre thanks to the Huron
United Way.
Jazzabel is a musical story of two
jazz divas, one that found success
and one that did not. Their personal
stories will be shared through the
music of the magical era of the
1930's and 40s.
"Jazzabel's about dreams and how
people pursue them," Pelley says.
"And it's about what the definition
of success in life is, as opposed to
the success produced by stardom."
It's a musical dream come true,
which takes us from a small town
in the Deep South to the celebrated
and legendary Apollo Theater in
New York City.
Denise has performed with
orchestras world wide, including
Germany and Portugal.
Several of the great artists Denise
has performed with include the
acclaimed trombonist Ray
Anderson, Gospel/Blues legend
Jackie Richardson and Flamenco
guitarist Jesse Cook to name a few.
Denise has acted at the Grand
Theatre in London in performances
such as the Fats Waller musical
'Ain't Misbehavin'Wang Dang
Doodle with Denis Simpson and A
Streetcar Named Desire.
Jazzabel premiered in September
of 2004 in London, Ont.'s McManus
4
Theatre (Grand Theatre) to sold out
audiences. It showcased in
Washington DC in October of 2005
and was given a worldwide focus by
Oprah Winfrey's 0 magazine on the
eve of its New York City debut in
February of 2006.
Jazzabel was conceived by and
stars the very talented Denise
Pelley. It was written by Jacquie
Gauthier and directed by Louise
Fagan, both also from London, Ont.
The musical director is Jeff
Christmas who is a Canadian -based
composer, arranger, conductor,
drummer, percussionist and trum-
peter.
He studied at the University of
Western Ontario, London, York
University in Toronto, and Berklee
College of Music, in Boston,
Massachusetts, where he majored in
Film Scoring and Composition.
All this talent creates a magical
mix of song and story telling that
will leave you wanting more.
"It's a rare privilege to have such
wonderful talent showcased in
Huron County. We're very fortunate
to have Denise for this one time per-
formance for the Huron United Way.
The performance is on Friday,
Nov. 1.0 at the Blyth Festival
Theatre, starting at 7 p.m. The tick-
ets are $35 each with general seat-
ing available.
Tickets available at Ernie King
Music stores in Goderich and
Wingham or contact the Huron
United Way directly at 519-524-
