Eureka Love and 5 Minutes of Fame return for a special night at SMU

A few months ago, Down East told you about the unfortunate hiatus that Eureka Love’s talent show, 5 Minutes of Fame, was forced into.

Looks like there is a little bit of light at the end of that tunnel, and it leads straight to Saint Mary’s University.

This Friday, Eureka will be back on the mic, along with 10 acts strutting their stuff on the stage of the Gorsebrook, on Saint Mary’s University campus.

The event is being put on in conjunction with SMU-Q, Saint Mary’s queer society. The show goes from 9pm until 11pm. For more information, check out 5 Minutes of Fame’s Facebook page.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
