Starring George Masswohl and Newfoundlanders Gerry Finn and Greg Hawco, The Rowdymen is a musical project that grew out of the Canadian company of the hit musical phenomenon Come From Away, in which Hawco was percussionist and Masswohl starred as Gander Mayor Claude Elliott. Together with Juno winner (and 3 time nominee) Finn, they set out to continue Come From Away’s work of bringing the music, stories, and spirit of Newfoundlanders to audiences everywhere.
In assembling this show, The Rowdymen have curated a rich blend of traditional, contemporary, and original Newfoundland music that evokes the unique custom and spirit of the land and her people.
Join us for a great night of NL music and songs from the hit musical Come From Away! Doors open at 6:30pm and show starts at 8pm. Tickets are $35 + tax and are NON-refundable.
