A celebration is taking place on Feb. 13 and 14 when the curtains rise for the 50th Annual Variety Show of Hearts Telethon on Global BC. Variety – The Children’s Charity is commemorating 50 years of supporting children in BC with special needs.
The show will broadcast live from The Theatre at the Hard Rock Casino reuniting kids, performers and hosts in a tribute to Variety’s illustrious past, as well as introducing the new stories and ideas shaping Variety’s future.
