Nils Ling returns with another brilliant one man show! This time it's his hilarious and sometimes poignant take on the age old battle of the sexes that will have you in stitches and tears. If you loved 'The Truth About Daughters," then you will be thrilled with "The Truth About Love and/or Marriage."

For over 25 years Lee and Sandy Paley have been singing their songs
with children, their families and teachers, touring in schools, libraries
and communities across Canada.

They have written and recorded over 200 action packed and visually
rich songs on 10 CDs, and on DVD from their Ballooner Landing television series.

Many of Lee and Sandy’s songs are printed in music books. Favourites like “One Green Jelly Bean”, “Six Inch Boots in a Nine Inch Puddle”, “Don’t Get Peanut Butter in the Strawberry Jam” and “Cow’s Woc Backward” are published in textbooks worldwide by Pearson Education (New Jersey, USA).

Motivated by their love for children and a belief that childhood is far too short, Lee and Sandy encourage families to play, laugh and sing together. Their imaginative music has a positive focus and a message of caring, friendship and love.

The Late Night Parlour is a mix of Teresa Doyle’s own songwriting and tunes from the swing and Latin era. The title track takes you to the tropical sensuality of Tobago and a mountainside rum shack called The Late Night Parlour. Inspired by performing with Soca musicians at the rum shack, Teresa began writing songs from the languor of her beach chair. Her songwriting is sassy, sexy, danceable and fun. The Late Night Parlour is co-produced by Teresa and David Rashed.
