Synopsis
What remains when a song ends? In this intimate solo cabaret, Yanik blends personal stories with iconic songs to honour legendary pop and Broadway divas as well as the unsung women who inspired him to sing and dream. He shares how music has shaped his life, from childhood memories of movie musicals to training as an opera singer and building a career on stage. Praised by Opera Canada as “a pleasure to watch and listen to,” he delivers a witty, heartfelt tribute celebrating resilience and the power of music to hold memories. (fringetoronto.com)
