Indigo A Tale of Two Divas: The Curious Adventures Jean Forsyth and Edith J. Miller Canada's Edwardian West | Erin Mills Town Centre
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Indigo
Brilliant singers and extraordinary women, Jean Forsyth and Edith J. Miller epitomized a golden age in Canada’s burgeoning West, where the only entertainment was live, and live performance was the beating heart of cultural life. Beginning as soloists in Manitoba’s church choirs, soprano Jean Forsyth and contralto Edith Miller took different–though crisscrossing–career paths, navigating an era of remarkable change, from the constraints of late Victorianism to the liberation of the Roaring Twenties. One rose to international stardom and the pinnacle of society, singing for the King of England. The other met the new challenges of the day in a flurry of philanthropic and entrepreneurial activity, crowning an already celebrated career. Each struck out on her own, to struggle–and find–success in a world where opportunities for women were scarce. Much has been written about the history of the pioneer Prairie West, but rarely has its social arena been so thoroughly examined. Rich in detail, abundant with extraordinary and colourful characters, A Tale of Two Divas is a fascinating and inspiring tale of a bygone era that resonates with our very own.
