Theatre Passe Muraille - Tale of a Town
A charming romp across the country, with unique perspectives and celebrations of home towns. I particularly liked the way we learned that “back in the day” changes for every generation and its OK to let the downtown evolve for each new generation ......

TSO POPS - A Canadian Brass Christmas
The Canadian Brass was exceptional - you can't imagine Flight of the Bumblebee by a suite of brass. The Nutcracker mash-up with Jingle Bells was awesome. The ESA Choir was wonderful. Overall a great holiday concert.
Mirvish - Million Dollar Quartet
A wonderful story about one point in time in Rock and Roll history. Great fun!

CanStage - Hisenberg
Fantastic show. Funny, outrageous, poignant - a different kind of love story, with brilliant performances by the two actors.

Soulpepper - A Christmas Carol
As Soulpepper is celebrating it’s 20th season, we are here for one of my favourite shows, which they have presented 12 times. I believe this is my 6th time, as this has now become one of my beloved Christmas traditions. Soulpepper does an amazing job with this story - wonderfully staged, the outstanding performances warm my heart every year, bringing both tears and joy.
