TORONTO - Celine Dion is already putting on a show as she imagines being set free onto concert stages after the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Quebec vocal powerhouse has been cooped up for well over a year and with a planned return to Las Vegas for a limited engagement this fall, her trademark energy is vibrating through every sentence. I ve been locked up, she says matter-of-factly in a media call before switching to the cadence of a town crier.
I ve been locked up, she says matter-of-factly in a media call before switching to the cadence of a town crier. I m gonna get out of this cage, she shouts. I m gonna be performing. You better watch out.
It s a promisemany of Dion s fans will certainly welcome after the singer s Courage world tour was frozen in its tracks shortly after she crossed the 50th tour date. Dozens more shows were postponed as the pandemic affected the entire concert industry.
Five Canadian dates are still on the calendar for this summer, and while they have not been officially moved, they ll likely be pushed a second time.
