Songwriter Circle with Terra Spencer, Cheryl Gaudet, Geoff Arsenault, and Jamie Junger
2026 is right around the corner and we are thrilled to be presenting a very special Songwriters Circle at the Al Whittle Theater on Sat., Jan.10., featuring Terra Spencer, Cheryl Gaudet, Geoff Arsenault and Jamie Junger.
The theatre will come alive with heart, joy and authentic emotion as these accomplished and beloved recording artists weave an evening of songs and the stories behind them, in an intimate setting that celebrates community and the power of connection through music.
Terra Spencer
Raised on the mud banks of the Avon River, award-winning Nova Scotian funeral director-turned-songwriter Terra Spencer charms audiences with her deft guitar, gospel piano, butterscotch voice, crackling wit, and wood-paneled warmth. Terra won 2025 Folk/Roots Recording of the Year for 'Sunset', AND Entertainer of the Year at NS Music Week!
Cheryl Gaudet
Valley-born singer-songwriter, Cheryl Gaudet is a gifted performer with a warm, magnetic stage presence. She delivers her signature folk-rock originals with rhythmic open-tuned guitar, velvety voice, and soulful harmonica with the ease and grace of a well-seasoned troubadour.
Geoff Arsenault
Singer-songwriter, award-winning drummer/percussionist, Geoff Arsenault is a multifaceted, uniquely talented recording artist with a funky, soulful sensibility. Geoff’s music sits somewhere between ‘Tony Joe White and ‘J.J. Cale’ – a real swampy roots music style, tinged with a pinch of Tex-Mex and a dash of New Orleans blues.
https://www.geoffarsenault.ca/
Jamie Junger
Jamie Junger is truly a born entertainer. His songs range from the profound to the profoundly silly. Solo or with his band, The Jungernauts, Jamie will have you dancing, singing and laughing. If Science ever discovers the "entertainer's gene," they should name it after Jamie Junger.
-Terry Pulliam, Producer

Eko—1:00pm & 9:15pm
Eko
Set against the misty hills of Kaattukunnu, on the Kerala–Karnataka border, Eko̅ unfolds in a landscape both beautiful and brutal, where nature guards its secrets. The region is wild and untamed, its silence broken only by the echo of dogs calling across the forested hills. Once home to a legendary dog breeder named Kuriachan, Kaattukunnu is now a place where stories become legends. The people who remain are an aging woman, her servant boy, and the few who come in search of Kuriachan to take revenge. Even in his absence, Kuriachan’s presence can still be felt, watching, waiting, and ruling the hills
