We are excited to announce that we have the one and only Sylvia Cornes joining us with her show Sincerley, L. Cohen.
Join Sylvia Cornes for a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Leonard Cohen in Sincerely, L. Cohen, a special anniversary performance marking eight years since his passing. In true Cohen fashion—reflecting his poetic melancholy—Cornes returns with the second iteration of this tribute show, inviting audiences to immerse themselves in the soulful beauty of his music and words.
Set against the intimate backdrop of Jonesway Theatre, this performance will feature the mesmerising strings of Aquila, led by violinist Rachael Aquilina, interwoven with Cornes’ own trio, Emily Gelineau and Henry Clarke. Together, they’ll offer a richly emotional journey through Cohen’s timeless melodies, paired with stories and poetry that reveal the depth of his genius.
Whether you’re a longtime admirer of Leonard Cohen or a lover of evocative, soul-stirring music, this anniversary performance is one you won’t want to miss.
