We invite you into an intimate evening of song with the incredible Joëlle Rabu in the beautiful Cedar Room. Though set within a soaring sanctuary space, this will not be a distant stage performance, but a warm, close-up gathering where story, music, and connection take centre stage.
Well-loved across Vancouver Island and throughout Canada, Joëlle has also earned international acclaim for her powerful concert portrayals of Edith Piaf, captivating audiences around the world. A gifted polyglot and storyteller, she effortlessly weaves together songs in multiple languages and styles, drawing from a remarkable 40+ year career that has taken her to symphony halls and theatres across five continents.
Born in Winnipeg to French parents and raised on Vancouver Island, Joëlle’s artistry is rooted in family, culture, and heartfelt human connection. From acclaimed musical theatre productions to award-nominated recordings and original works, her performances are known for their emotional depth, elegance, and warmth.
This all-ages evening promises music, stories, laughter, and reflection, an experience that feels less like a formal concert and more like gathering together in the comfort of a shared living room.
Join us for a rare opportunity to experience one of Canada’s most cherished voices, up close and unforgettable.
