If you’ve heard Rick Mercer rant and thought you could do it too, here’s your chance.
The Glamoramas are giving folks a chance to speak their mind at Rant On Sister, which is taking place on Tuesday, March 8 at the Columbia Theatre. A number of guest ranters will share their thoughts at the fundraiser, including Stacy Ashton, Janice Bannister, Rick Carswell, Raphaella Weissgerber, Lorrie Williams and Carmen Wiseman.
“You too can get it off your chest for a mere $5 for a three-minute rant,” said Delora Harper, a member of the Glamoramas.
The Glamoramas are raising money for the Grandmother to Grandmother campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation, which provides funds to help grandmothers who are raising their grandchildren due to the AIDS pandemic in Sub-Saharan Africa. It’s being held in conjunction with International Women’s Day on March 8.
Along with hearing folks rant, you’ll be able to enjoy entertainment by The Euphoniously Feminist and Non-Performing Quintet (a group of singing ranters) and door prizes. You can also buy food and drinks from the Columbia’s bar and food menus and take part in a silent auction.
Tickets to Rant On Sister are $25 and are available at www.thecolumbia.ca or at the door. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the fun starts at 7:30 p.m.
“We encourage you to get them as soon as you can,” Harper said. “There’s quite a buzz around town about our event. They are also available at the door for cash or cheques.
