"Totally original... Funky as all hell... this ain’t any Kenny G oatmeal for folks with no teeth."
- Mike Greenblatt, Classicalite (New York, USA)
----
Under the leadership of JUNO-nominated and 10x Global Music Award–winning jazz pianist NICK MACLEAN, SNAGGLE feat the ALI BROS launches into a daring new chapter: a suite of electrifying works inspired by the science fiction grandmaster ISAAC ASIMOV and his legendary FOUNDATION saga. Often described as “Canada’s answer to Snarky Puppy”, the band goes interstellar using their fearless sound, likened to a cross between electric-era Miles Davis and Rage Against the Machine, to map the rise and fall of galactic empires.

Front and center are the ALI BROS, the near-telepathic horn duo of BROWNMAN ALI (Guru, Jay-Z, Randy Brecker) on trumpet and MARCUS ALI (Matt Dusk, Jason Wilson, Mr Something Something) on saxophone. Like Asimov’s psychohistorians, they shape the future with every phrase, weaving complex probabilities into sonic reality. Joining them on this voyage are some of Toronto’s finest electric-jazz explorers: JAY YOO on guitar, MATT GRUEBNER on bass, and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums. With performances swinging from Seldon–like moments of quiet, calculated clarity to cataclysmic bursts of energy worthy of a crumbling empire... Snaggle’s new repertoire doesn’t just pay homage to ASIMOV, it channels the spirit of his storytelling: daring, complex, and endlessly imaginative. 

DOC ROCK & the ASSASSINS, the special guest opener, has carved out a reputation as one of Durham Region’s hardest-hitting rock outfits. Blending the grit of classic rock with the energy of modern alternative, the band delivers a live show that is as raw and powerful as it is unforgettable. With deep roots in the local scene, Doc Rock & the Assassins have become a fixture in Ontario venues, sharing stages with a wide range of rock, metal, and alternative acts. Their sound channels the spirit of no-nonsense rock & roll while embracing the high-octane edge that defines Oshawa’s music community.

For fans of Jazz, Science Fiction, and the BOUNDLESS possibilities that emerge when the two intertwine... this is a show not to be missed!

How does a middle-aged widow foil the Nazis in occupied France? By knitting—in code!

During World War II, a middle-aged Canadian woman – secretly Jewish – is recruited by the British Operations Executive to serve as a spy in Nazi-occupied France. Her male colleague is skeptical she'll make any difference because she's a woman — and an 'old' one at that. But she defies expectations and challenges the chauvinism and antisemitism of the times, using her craft of knitting to pass coded intelligence messages about the Germans to the Allies. 

'Spycraft' was inspired by the research of writers-producers Kirk Dunn and Claire Ross-Dunn, who uncovered untold stories of women during WWII using knitting as a tool for espionage — listening in on Nazi soldiers who never saw them as a threat and stitching secret codes into everyday garments to smuggle intelligence past enemy lines.

Concessions and cash bar available.

Tickets are only $35 and are available at the Ajax and McLean Community Centres, the Audley Recreation Centre, and online at www.ajax.ca/sfc. For more information, call 905-619-2529, ext. 2787 (ARTS), email us at stfranciscentre@ajax.ca, or visit us online at www.ajax.ca/sfc

Join us for the TIFF Ajax Film Circuit at the St. Francis Centre!

Here’s your chance to watch films from the Toronto international Film Festival (TIFF) without driving into the city, dealing with traffic jams and paying for parking - it’s all right here in Ajax! Film selections include Canadian and foreign made films, contemporary cinema and thought-provoking independent films.

Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution
In recognition of International Day of Persons with Disabilities, the St. Francis Centre presents a free screening of Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution. In the early 1970s, teenagers with disabilities faced a future shaped by isolation, discrimination and institutionalization. Camp Jened, a ramshackle camp “for the handicapped” (a term no longer used) in the Catskills, exploded those confined. Jened was their freewheeling Utopia, a place with summertime sports, smoking and make-out sessions, where campers experienced liberation and full inclusion as human beings. Their bonds endured as many migrated west to Berkeley - a hotbed of activism where friends from Camp Jened realized that disruption, civil disobedience and political participation could change the future for millions. No one at Camp Jened could’ve imagined that those summers in the woods together would be the beginnings of a revolution!

Concessions and cash bar available.

This film presentation is FREE to attend, however, registration is required either online at www.ajax.ca/sfc, by email at stfranciscentre@ajax.ca or by calling 905-619-2529, ext. 2787 (ARTS).

The Penguin Lessons
Starring Oscar nominee Steve Coogan, this poignant dramedy follows an Englishman’s personal and political awakening after he adopts a penguin during a cataclysmic period in Argentine history. Inspired by true events, 'The Penguin Lessons' takes to heart the notion that saving someone’s life begins a new responsibility. In this case, that someone is a surprisingly wise, utterly adorable penguin. Helmed by Peter Cattaneo (The Full Monty; Military Wives), 'The Penguin Lessons' delivers this delightful story with wit, warmth and subtle insight into just how rewarding it can be to do the right thing.

Concessions and cash bar available.

Tickets are only $12 and are available at the Ajax and McLean Community Centres, the Audley Recreation Centre, and online at www.ajax.ca/sfc. For more information, call 905-619-2529, ext. 2787 (ARTS), email us at stfranciscentre@ajax.ca, or visit us online at www.ajax.ca/sfc

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the funniest of all? 

The "Nearly World Famous" DuffleBag Theatre is, that's who! And they're back again this season with a hilarious rendition of Snow White. The Queen has always been the “fairest in the land” - her Magic Mirror tells her so! But when the Queen hears that Snow White has surpassed her, she'll do whatever it takes to get rid of her - forever! Fortunately, Snow White escapes into the deep, dark woods, where she comes to a tiny cottage. Little does she know that the seven dwarves living there will help save her! Laugh out loud as Snow White and some audience members encounter hapless huntsmen, bad apples and little men with big hearts and short tempers. Will she find her “happily ever after?”

Concessions available.

Tickets are only $20 and are available at the Ajax and McLean Community Centres, the Audley Recreation Centre, and online at www.ajax.ca/sfc. For more information, call 905-619-2529, ext. 2787 (ARTS), email us at stfranciscentre@ajax.ca, or visit us online at www.ajax.ca/sfc

The Sound of Music – 60th Anniversary
A tuneful, heartwarming story based on the real-life story of the Von Trapp Family Singers, one of the world’s best-known concert groups in the era immediately preceding World War II. 

Maria (Julie Andrews), a young novice, is sent by her convent to become a governess to the seven children of a widowed naval officer (Christopher Plummer) and brings a new love of life and music into their home. Sing along with such classics as ‘My Favourite Things,’ ‘Do Re Mi,’ ‘The Lonely Goatherd,’ and ‘Edelweiss.’

Ajax-born and award-winning singer/songwriter, screen composer and recording artist Alex Whorms, returns “home for the holidays” with her band for a special concert presentation, mixing her original music with some holiday favourites. It's an experience that will warm your heart on a cold December evening.

From her beloved piano she flows freely and flawlessly between styles and sounds, gracefully blending classic singer-songwriter pop, jazz, soul, rock, classical, folk and almost anything else that strikes her fancy.

Inspired by an array of musical artists including Sarah Slean, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Sara Bareilles, Carole King and Laila Biali, Alex crafts music that is essentially a genre unto itself.
