THE MEN OF THE DEEPS

MEN OF THE DEEPS RE-VISIT 50 YEAR-OLD TOUR SCHEDULE
GLACE BAY, SYDNEY, NEW WATERFORD ON THE LIST!

In November of the year 1966, a group of singing Coal Miners from Cape Breton Nova Scotia decided to introduce themselves to island audiences via a musical tour. The Men of the Deeps pioneer journey began on the very first day of November at the historic Savoy Theatre in Glace Bay, where they performed for a packed house of eager townsfolk. The very next evening, they travelled to downtown Sydney for a performance at the Vogue Theatre on Charlotte Street
and on the third night, they made their way to the Paramount Theatre which is now referred to as the Urban Centre on
Plummer Avenue in New Waterford.

The choir is once again preparing to embark on a tour, this time to celebrate their half-century milestone with those familiar Maritime towns. The exact buildings they played in may not be there anymore, but the people are still there, adds Muise.
