Stephanie MacDonald has been playing fiddle and step dancing her whole life. A long-time member of the Cape Breton Fiddlers’ Association, she regularly performs at square dances, concerts, ceilidhs, weddings and community events. Renowned for her piano talents, Susan MacLean comes from a deeply musical background and also plays fiddle and composes tunes. Tickets are on sale at the door between 5 and 7pm.
