Winnipeg troupe Rusalka, Yevshan from Saskatoon, Tavria from Regina and Tryzub from Calgary will come together to perform Razom 2 at Winnipeg’s Centennial Concert Hall at 2:30 p.m. Sunday. The troupes performed in the other cities in September and February.

Rusnak said the first Razom was four years ago with Rusalka and troupes from Calgary and Edmonton and the experience of touring with the other troupes is “just the best.”

“It’s been phenomenal,” he said.
