Spring was left out of this year's seasonal changes for a bit this June - right into good old New England 85 degrees and 78% humidity. But, thanks to some clearing storms, the temp is back where it belongs, and evening harvest of lettuce and spinach a pleasure. The patio is getting used and the grill smells of paella.....

| | Francesca Gagnon - The Voice of Alegria |  | | "If CIRQUE DU SOLEIL is indeed the eighth wonder of the world, GAGNON is the otherworldly herald who made everyone notice." Entertainment Today, Los Angeles
One of the most unmistakable voices in theatre sings the music of the most beloved shows on earth.
VOA PRODUCTIONS present FRANCESCA GAGNON - THE VOICE OF ALEGRIA, a staged concert devoted to the music of Cirque du Soleil, featuring the incomparable voice and presence of Francesca Gagnon, the original voice that is unmistakably Cirque du Soleil. This is the only production of its kind endorsed by Cirque du Soleil.
Canadian born Francesca Gagnon is one of the most recognizable voices in theater. From her roots in jazz, blues and chanson française, Francesca has earned herself the title of "modern realist singer". "I love when songs have depth, meaning, and intensity, when they approach the tragic!" she claims. During her tours of Morocco, Central Africa and Cameroon, she absorbed the culture, immersing herself in the warm African rhythms and renewed her passion for the discovery of new cultures and new music.
Francesca's destiny was set when she went on to tour the world with Cirque du Soleil, charming audiences and critics alike. Now, Francesca brings all the magic of Cirque du Soleil music to theatres and concert halls.
