The Music of BOBLO

Presented by Kitchenband and The Theatre Centre

Kitchenband and The Theatre Centre invite you to a one-night-only celebration of the music from our Dora award winning production of BOBLO in a new album release. It’s the end of the year, the bar will be open, it’s gonna be a helluva party.

BOBLO tells the the mythic, geographic and historical story of an abandoned island amusement park in the Detroit River in a live concert featuring the original BOBLO band with special guests.

“Penner’s moving folk- and rock-inspired songs are another highlight. Ranging from haunting ballads to feel-good foot-stompers, they wonderfully evoke the raucous energy of the massive dance hall, the nervous thrill of the flume ride and the bittersweet feeling that comes at the end of a summer day trip (or an era). If the soundtrack were available, I’d have snapped it up on the spot.” ~ NOW Magazine, Critic’s Pick, 2012

Now the soundtrack is available!
