TWIN FLAMES
In celebration of National Indigenous Peoples Day the Regent Theatre in association with Prince Edward Public Library are pleased to present multi-award winning Indigenous folk duo Twin Flames on June 24th at 2PM.
Husband and wife duo Jaaji & Chelsey June, of Nunavut and Ottawa respectively, combine traditional Indigenous story-telling and music with western harmonies to entertain and audiences of all ages.
