The Bowie Lives: Canada’s Most Sensational Bowie Spectacular

The Bowie Lives: Canada’s Most Sensational Bowie Spectacular is back by popular demand at The Historic Gayety Theatre on May 20 at 8 p.m.

Michael Bell is an award-winning vocalist who channels the sound and styles of David Bowie with the help of an all-star band, theatre, and costumes that capture the imagination of fans young and old.

Bell’s first theatrical production “Changes All Bowie” toured the “A circuit” in the late ‘80s, but he hung up his “Ziggy” in the early ‘90s. After David Bowie’s untimely death in 2016, his calling returned, as did the industry interest. Contacting long-time musical director Michael Beauclerc, they began auditioning players to fill out a band capable of performing some of rock’s most challenging material. The Bowie Lives brings all the sounds and visions to the stage, from Space Oddity to Lazarus.

“The show is more of a happening,” said Beauclerc.

Audience members are inspired to wear their favourite “Bowie look.”

Come dressed as Bowie and don’t forget to get your Bowie on as free face painting is often offered in the lobby! In addition, The Bowie Bazaar displays and sells; Bowie collectibles, t-shirts, merch, music, and more.

Tickets cost $35 and are on sale at https://tickets.ticketwise.com/event/ bowie-lives-david-bowie-cocert/pyos
