We can only hope for more of the same to take place in the Royal Alexandra Hall. A splendid evening of fine food and entertainment was the combined effort of the Key City Theatre and The Cranbrook History Centre on Wednesday, December 9th. Political speeches from the likes of Sir John A. Macdonald, a fortune teller, predicting the lives of some well-known political characters of the time, and a performance from one of Canada's finest concert pianists, Michael Kim, made for a magical night.
Thanks to all who played a part in this Christmas treat. More please.
