Get transported back in time with the Louisiana Hayride Show.

The live musical show featuring tribute artists and a live band is coming to the Okanagan-Shuswap.

Salmon Arm鈥檚 hayride goes on at the Song Sparrow Hall on May 7 and a show in Oliver at the Venables Theatre is scheduled for the next day.

All shows start at 7:30 p.m.

The Louisiana Hayride Show began in March 2010, performing across Western Canada. In addition to classic music, the show includes comedic artists and historical tidbits about the songs and stories performed.

Iconic stars like Elvis Presley, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynne, Ray Orbison and Shania Twain will be represented, performing well-known hits.

鈥淎fter 13 years and over 500 shows in theatres all across Western Canada, the show is still going strong,鈥 said Gil and Lori Risling, owners/operators/producers/performers.

鈥淎nd it all started March 10, 2010 at the little Shuswap theatre in Salmon Arm and later, the Powerhouse Theatre in Vernon.鈥

This will be the 13th show in Vernon but for those who have seen this production before, the show is always adding new and fun material to keep you surprised and entertained from start to finish.
