Keith Richards and the road to nowhere fast

Suitcase in Point brings The Keith Richards One Woman Show to Shadbolt Centre

It's billed as a "swishy-swashy Jack Daniels toast to getting by just as you are" - and if that's enough to intrigue you, then you'll want to mark Feb. 4 to 7 on your calendars.

That's when the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts is presenting The Keith Richards One Woman Show.

Presented by Suitcase in Point Theatre, the show chronicles the story of Mona, who can't get enough of the Rolling Stones - and Keith Richards in particular.

"She's pretty well obsessed. She's also not sleeping. She is going with Keith Richards to a boat in the middle of nowhere," a press release says. "A chain-smoking, prophesying Richards summons rollicking memories to show this small-town, sleep-deprived 'Keith junkie' that you can't emulate your heroes."

Performed by Deanna Jones, Mona's trip takes her through Keith's life from boyhood to his drug bust in Toronto in 1977 - with a live rock score played by Kevin Richardson.
