Special performance of Las Vegas production in Toronto July 7

TORONTO, June 2, 2011 /CNW/ - Fans can look forward to a little bit country, and a little bit rock n' roll this summer as Donny and Marie Osmond hit the stage to perform for the first time together in Toronto. Dancap Productions Inc. is bringing the internationally-adored duo's interactive Las Vegas theatrical concert DONNY & MARIE LIVE to Toronto for a strictly limited engagement at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts this summer.

SickKids Foundation is excited to partner with Children's Miracle Network and Dancap Productions Inc. for a special performance of DONNY & MARIE LIVE on Thursday, July 7, 2011. A portion of ticket proceeds will support SickKids Foundation, the fundraising arm of The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), helping to raise critical funds for world-class research, learning and care.

As co-founder of Children's Miracle Network, Marie Osmond has helped raise more than $4 billion for children's health across North America and Europe. SickKids is proud to be a Children's Miracle Network member hospital, benefitting from the fundraising campaigns of numerous national partners. SickKids Foundation is grateful to TD Bank Group, Performance Sponsor for this special evening of entertainment. TD Bank Group has been a committed Children's Miracle Network partner since 1994 and a leading corporate supporter of SickKids for 15 years.

"As a mom to eight beautiful children, all I could ever ask for is for them to be healthy," says Marie Osmond. "It is heart-warming for me to be able to extend my support of children's health to SickKids while we're in Toronto."

DONNY & MARIE LIVE showcases some of their greatest hits including "Paper Roses," "Puppy Love," "Go Away Little Girl," and more, in a rave-reviewed multi-media spectacle with a big rock band, a cast of dancers, show-stopping production numbers, audience interaction and the trademark teasing between siblings. It will also feature new favourites from their latest album released in 2010.

For audience members looking for an exclusive experience beyond the show, there are two special package options for the July 7 evening performance. The Premium package is available for $400 and includes a reception with Donny and Marie, pre-show cocktail and dinner, and a ticket for the show. For only $100 more (a total of $500 each), VIP package guests can enjoy the same experience in addition to a post-show meet and greet with the brother and sister duo, plus an autographed photo and CD. VIP packages are limited and on a first come basis. Regular show tickets start from $52.

DONNY & MARIE LIVE is currently on stage at the Flamingo Las Vegas. What started as a five-week engagement in September 2008, has become a staple Las Vegas performance, scheduled to continue until the end of 2012 due to worldwide popular demand.
