On November 9 and 10, step into the golden age of radio theatre and celebrate 100 years of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) with ‘Pathway to the Stars: A Live Radio Experience’. This unique event, hosted at Aurora Town Square, brings to life true tales of courage and heroism, drawn from the bestselling book ‘Pathway to the Stars: 100 Years of the Royal Canadian Air Force’ by Michael Hood and Tom Jenkins.
The performance features an ensemble of five talented actors portraying over 30 characters, complete with live sound effects and music. Four gripping episodes from the ‘Pathway to the Stars’ radio play podcast will transport the audience through harrowing and heartwarming moments in Canadian aviation history. From daring missions to personal stories of resilience, these episodes showcase the extraordinary bravery of RCAF heroes across generations.
Adding to the experience is two-time Juno Award nominee and CRMA winner Jason Wilson, who will host the event and perform live music, enriching the atmosphere with his artistry. The audience will feel as though they’ve traveled back in time to the days when families gathered around the radio to hear dramatic retellings of real-life events. Attendees will also become part of the action, taking on the role of the studio audience, amplifying the authenticity of the performance.
