Venue: Rivoli


City: Toronto, ON Canada

Mute Cute Girl (Sarah Slean and Friends)

by James McGarry

Sarah Slean was scheduled to perform at the Rivoli in Toronto, ON on Thursday January 27th.  She unfortunately got laryngitis and was instructed not to sing at risk of doing permanent damage to her voice.  But like a true performer, she didn't want to disappoint her fans.  She show must go on!  So Sarah and her Manager, Heather, put together a wonderful show!

Here is a recap from one of her fans who attended the show.

There's no real describing it though. I must say when Ms. Pollack tells
you there is a "surprise" you will be _surprised_. This was a dream, it
had to be, kids, this did happen, right?

All I'm thinking is, "Anyone else woulda just canceled. No one, on
_this_ planet would've rounded up a pile of musical pals and made
magic." I'm so giddy thinking about this :-) It, it... it was an amazing

Get well soon, Sarah!
