Beau Dixon and a group of merry world-class musicians return to the stage this December. They can’t wait to add some rum to your eggnog with a Holiday concert like no other.

'twas On A Night Like This

Young Centre for the Performing Arts

A group of old classmates — self-declared the “Multi-Ethnic Reject Group”—reunites to pre-game their 20th high school reunion, but nostalgia quickly turns into something darker. As drinks flow and old wounds resurface, they confront the choices that shaped them, the friendships that endured or crumbled, and the presence of something—or someone—they can’t escape. Sharp, theatrical, and deeply moving, The Comeuppance is a reckoning for elder millennials, caught between who they were, who they’ve become, and the world they never saw coming. When the night ends, will they still recognize themselves?

The Comeuppance

Detroit was once called, ‘The City of the Future.' It was built on the innovation of Henry Ford and later gutted by the collapse of the automotive industry. 20th century Detroit is more than the story of collapse and rebirth, it’s also a story of how those pressures created the music that captured the world's attention: ‘The Sound of Young America.'

Detroit: Music of the Motor City

A rock-fueled, punk-infused reimagining of Angela Carter’s The Tiger’s Bride, this electrifying song cycle turns Beauty and the Beast inside out. Here, the Beast doesn’t become a man—instead, the Girl becomes something wilder. Blurring the lines between girl and woman, human and animal, power and submission, Tiger Bride is a raw, gothic horror pulsing with sex, fury, and transformation. Part rock concert, part cabaret, part theatre, this is no tidy fairy tale—it’s an untamed, unapologetic roar.
