A renowned Canadian cabaret artist is coming to Burnaby with her new show this fall.
Sharron Matthews will be at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts for Naked, running Nov. 25.
The show includes the music of AC/DC, Amy Winehouse, Chaka Kahn, Beyoncé, Annie Lennox, Cheap Trick, Pink, Coldplay, U2, the Beatles and more.
“Sharron takes you straight to the bone with her spellbinding stories of want, of need, of love, of fear and, as always, of hysterical joy,” a press release says. “In Naked, Sharron strips down musically and emotionally, pulling the audience into this intimate performance in a way that is both moving and breathtaking.”
Matthews’ performing career has taken her around the world since 2005, performing cabarets that include songs, stories, “songologues,” mash-ups and medleys.
She’s also performed in musicals including Showboat, Les Miserables, The Wizard of Oz and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and she’s familiar to TV watchers from her star turn on two seasons of Global TV’s reality show Canada Sings.
Tickets for her Naked performance at the Shadbolt are $33 for students and seniors, $38 regular. See tickets.shadboltcentre.com or call 604-205-3000.
