RIDGE feat. The Fugitives

Brendan McLeod and the JUNO-nominated group, The Fugitives, perform Ridge, an unforgettable tribute to the more than 10,000 Canadian casualties of Vimy Ridge. Through storytelling, theatre, and live music, the show examines misconceptions and varying perspectives around the battle, while drawing parallels to other formative events in our nation’s past. Featuring inventive musical interpretations of WWI soldier songs, Ridge probes difficult yet necessary questions about how and why we grieve. Ridge is a vivid, kinetic ride through history, and a personal examination of our connection to the past that passionately argues against the exploitation of young lives.
