 as the weather turns sunny and warm in Halifax.){kind=link}
Summer may traditionally be a slow season for the arts, but we’ve got five shows & festivals we think will entice you inside – or outside, as the case may be – as the weather (hopefully) turns sunny and warm in Halifax.
1Okay, technically, two shows, but we’re counting it as one as Shakespeare by the Sea (Jul 8-Sep 2) celebrates 30 years with Romeo and Juliet and the family-friendly Pinocchio: The Musical.
2The TD Halifax Jazz Festival (Jul 11-16) returns to venues across Halifax, featuring a cross-section of local talent and headliners that include Feist, Shaggy, Fleet Foxes and Fortunate Ones.
3One of the funniest shows you will ever see on stage, from the minds of South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Broadway in Halifax presents The Book of Mormon at the Scotiabank Centre (Jul 18-23).
4We’ll tell you what you want, what you really, really want, as Girl Power takes over the Neptune Theatre stage with five Toronto women delivering the ultimate 90’s dance party in Wannabe: A Spice Girls Tribute (Jul 20-23).
5The Halifax Buskerfest (Aug 2-7) returns to the Halifax and Dartmouth waterfronts, featuring a roster of international talent that will include everything from escape artists to feats of strength and music.
