Alisha's Light - Forever 57

Alisha's Light - Forever 57 in Calgary invites audiences into Alisha’s first year of living authentically, inspiring personal reflection and change. Through spoken word poetry, theatrical storytelling and vivid reenactments of pivotal conversations with her spouse and mother, Alisha shares how a cheeky decision on the eve of her 57th birthday sparked a powerful transformation. The show traces her shift from a reserved writer who feared rejection to a vibrant performer eager to test her work at poetry slams. Performed at The Lantern Community Church, this intimate experience encourages each audience member to consider their own path. As Alisha lays bare her doubts, courage and humour, she gently poses one central question: what small change could help you move closer to your best self?
