Events Wood Buffalo presents Charlie: A Hockey Story

Drama
Adult

Hockey meets Shakespeare for a rock'em, sock'em theatrcial experience! Using music and storytelling, Jim weaves a tale about his love of Shakespeare, his father's love of hockey, and the important lesson in forgiveness he learned while exploring the hockey career of an uncle he never met - Charlie Sands, a smooth skating right-winger who played in the NHL during the '30s and '40s. Over twelve NHL seasons from 1933-43, Charlie Sands played a Right Wing and Centre for the Leafs. Bruins and Canadiens. Along the way Charlie met many of hockey's greatest legends including Foster Hewitt, King Clancy, Eddie Shore and Ace Bailey. He was involved in one of the longest hockey games ever played and one of the most violent incidents in all of hockey.

"An appealing hour of rambling storytelling with some nice guitar work at either end. Charlie's legend is well-served by his nephew's gentle patter about the glory days of the NHL." - Peter Bernie, Vancouver Sun
