Acting Up Stage Company - The Wild Party

Quite the cornucopia of characters on stage - from divas to queens to clowns to gigolos. Definitely had a vaudeville vibe, tackling many thorny themes by a very talented cast. Really made you want to join the party.

Soulpepper - The Dining Room

Excellent! I heard that phrase from a number of people around me. Six actors played around 50 characters, which required some pretty quick costume changes. I can't even begin to list my favourite characters, there were just too many. And an outstanding cast. I heartily recommend this charming show!

Mirvish - Cannibal! the Musical

‎Pretty campy, silly and absurd. But lots of laughs and lots of fun. Not for the young or the prudish, so we very much enjoyed it! One week left, so book your tickets now if you need to let loose.

Art of Time Ensemble - Magic and Loss: A Tribute to Lou Reed

Amazing musicians and arrangements of Lou Reed songs. Obviously many audience favourites, judging from the enthusiastic response, closing with an awesome rendition of The Wild Side. All the performers were great - it would be unfair to single any one out.

Mirvish - Robin Hood

My daughter saw this show the first time on Christmas Eve and couldn't wait to go again. She enjoyed it just as much this time, eagerly anticipating the best parts, and wanting to see it yet again! It was campy and fun, charming and athletic, with really creative staging. A wonderful family night out or date night.

Soulpepper - Accidental Death of an Anarchist

Based on a real life event in Italy in 1969, this play was a brilliant farce of police work gone awry. Updated for Toronto and current events, there were many parallels and comic moments that you weren't sure you should really be laughing
at. Filled with racial stereotyping, off color mayoral
references, its a real shame if you missed this. The last show was today, but we can hope that Soulpepper brings it back in the near future.

TSO POPS - From Bach to Bluegrass

We thoroughly enjoyed the "Time for Three" classically  trained string trio, who had a lot of fun mashing classical music with some rousing country and pop music. These guys were absolutely awesome and are extremely talented, making the instruments do some incredible things.
