Do your remember your first heartthrob? Your first date? Your first dance?

The Maple Leaf Singers will help you walk down memory lane at their concert this weekend at Massey Theatre.

The Burnaby-based choir, which is in its 46th year of performing, will offer up chart toppers from the 1950s, '60s, '70s and '80s in its Rock, Roll and Remember concert.

Think songs like Michael Jackson's The Man in the Mirror, Manhattan Transfer's The Boy From New York City, Stompin' Tom Connors' Hockey Song and Queen's We Will Rock You - plus Broadway classics, spirituals, classical twists and inspirational pieces.

"We don't put on a concert, we put on a show," says musical director Wilson Fowlie in a press release. "We may be a community chorus, but our audiences get a professional package: talented singers, energetic choreography and colourful costumes, along with a big dose of fun."

The Maple Leaf Singers are a registered charity that performs more than a dozen shows a year at community centres, churches seniors' residents and various special events.

Rock, Roll and Remember is on Saturday, May 31 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, June 1 at 2 p.m.

Tickets are $20, or $10 for children 12 and under.
