AGO - ReBlink

Interesting concept, but will thus encourage the younger generation to focus on the "tricks" vs the artwork. Hmmm. Have to wait and see how this took evolves.

Soulpepper - Idomeneus

Unusual approach, oulining multiple scenarios with eclectic costumes and a naked stage - captivating! Culminating in a joyous dance of life, we really enjoyed it.

TPM - Drawer Boy

Fantastic show about the power of theatre and story telling. All the actors are outstanding. Not your typical farm show and not to be missed.

I was at the gala performance, which was a fantastic evening of fun, food, drinks, prizes and great commentary, in celebration of TPM's 50th anniversary. A fabulous night out with friends and a great cause.

CanStage – He Who Falls

So who thinks up this stuff? Pretty ambitious and off the wall, so to speak. But my daughter and I really enjoyed the show – artistry, acrobatics and physical comedy – very well done!

National Geographic Live! - Bertie Gregory: A Wild Life

A very entertaining and enterprising young man, it is encouraging to witness such passion for wildlife. Gorgeous shots, with lots of "don't do this at home" moments with elephants, leopards, black bears and wolves.

Sheridan Theatre - The Cradle Will Rock

Charmingly set in the thirties in New York, the cast were working from the time we arrived, engaging us in the halls and escorting us into the theatre. A mini history lesson from early union days of strife.

Art of Time - A Singer Must Die: The Words & Music of Leonard Cohen

Fantastic line-up of vocalists and readings, featuring an amazing selection of Cohen's songs and poems. And as expected, backed by an outstanding band.
