Excitement! Drama! Romance! And... knitting?

A scintillating evening of the lost knitting songs of WWI and WWII from Canada, Britain, America and France. Feel free to bring your knitting (or crochet) and stitch along to these funny, poignant, toe-tapping, needle-clicking tunes. Come out and have a ball! Stitch in Time presents over a dozen historic songs, including: More Power to Your Knitting, Nell!, The Knitting Itch and Knocking at the Knitting Club.

Stitch in Time is produced by Sisterscene Theatre from Edmonton Canada, and stars classical singer Melanie Gall. Melanie has performed in festivals and with opera companies all over the world, including the Semaine de la Francophonie celebrations in Argentina, Uruguay, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique, the American Spring Festival in the Czech Republic and she has toured her KidsFringe show, Opera Mouse, across North America, to Algeria and Morocco. As well, Melanie is the co-host of the popular Knitting Podcast, The Savvy Girls Podcast and is presenting the children's show Opera Mouse, also at Safari Lounge.
