Come celebrate with us 50 years of the Guelph Arts Council. They have invited me to recite some favourites from Heads & Tales.
I'm not the only one on the bill however. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements as we get closer to Saturday November 22. The fun starts at 7pm in their new home in the Quebec Street Mall.
I hear there are snacks too! In fact here are the details
And a bit about me:
Bio:Jay Wilson
50 plus years as an actor with various Ontario theatre companies interspersed with administrative work with The National Tap Dance Co. of Canada, The Ontario Lottery Corporation, The Gravenhurst Opera House and Theatre Collingwood, Jay is known locally for JayWalking Guelph. A volunteer guide with The Guelph Arts Council’s historic walks, Jay has recently joined the Board at GAC. Watch for his one-man show Lilt of Laughter, Trace of Tears coming to Guelph’s River Run Centre April 2026.
Performance Description: Heads & Tales
Inspired by Edmund Kean who could recite any Shakespeare monologue at the drop of a hat, a lot of monologues, poems, and recitations, have gone into Jay’s head over the years. To keep them fresh, titles are placed in a hat. You draw a title and Jay recites it. Neither of us knows what to expect. Like Cracker Jacks – a surprise every time! This performance will have some Guelph references.
