It was such a treat to see Angela Lansbury
live. She made a lovely medium, both charming and delightfully acerbic.
Full of comedic moments, surprises and very well executed, we really
enjoyed this play.

National Geographic Live - Untamed Antartica
Once again, these guys are nuts. I can't
imagine thinking its a good idea to live at the tip of Antarctica in a tent for
several weeks and scaling a mountain that scares me silly. And in sub zero temperatures. Crazy people! But awesome photographs and video footage!

Video Games Live
We just love the amazing music made for video
games and it's awesome to have it accompanied by clips of the games. This show
also includes lots of fun interludes, like pitting video games against each
other and audience challenges. It's an annual crowd pleaser, drawing repeat
roars from the audience.

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.
