The William Glesby Centre in Portage la Prairie is showing the variety show Stranger To Hard Work, Cathy Jones, tonight. Executive director Carolyn Gray says they took into consideration the time of year for the show.

It couldn't have come at a better time. We found the Cathy Jones Solo Show, which is a new show. She's been touring it all over Canada getting rave reviews."

Gray says she'll perform some characters from This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Codco, as well as some new material. Gray adds it's for a more mature audience.

Show begins at 7:30 p.m. tonight.
