LEARN MOREREVIEW: Theatre Under the Stars puts a compelling spin on Cats
In the end, Cats left me puzzled, perplexed, and absolutely buzzing. Did I ever learn what Jellicle means? No. Did I have a great time? Absolutely.
At Canadian Stage’s 41st annual Dream in High Park, everyone is Hamlet
“There's something really democratic about outdoor theatre,” says Canadian Stage artistic director Brendan Healy. “Indoor theatre spaces are awesome, but they can sometimes be intimidating and limited. For many people, Dream in High Park is their one trip to the theatre that they do every year. For many young people, it’s their first experience of theatre.”
Speaking in Draft: Theresa Cutknife
“Of course, we all have to make money and make different sacrifices just to pay the bills, because this city is so horribly overpriced,” says Cutknife. “But why? Why do we have to suffer to feel like we’ve paid our dues to the industry?”

Toronto Fringe’s New Young Reviewers 2024 | Round Two
The second round of reviews from the Toronto Fringe's New Young Reviewers program is here!
REVIEW: The Last Timbit is a surprisingly charming commercial gem
The Last Timbit, a show of snow and sweets, had a limited run at the Elgin Theatre in June and is getting a streaming release on Crave on August 12. I, for one, am more than curious to see how a wider audience will react.

REVIEW: Icarus Theatre’s Fiji combines competing genres
If you enjoy the pitch of a rom-com true-crime mesh, this one's for you. Even if it's not perfect, it's a charming, nimble watch that tugs at the heartstrings.
REVIEW: ARC’s Rockabye glows but over-saturates
Rockabye, though a little longer than it should be, raises many timely questions. Should real lives be valued over ideologies or the other way around? Is it ethical to let someone die for a political cause?
REVIEW: Tarragon’s Greenhouse Festival grows works-in-progress with audience
It’s an absolute pleasure to see art in its process phase, in motion, unfolding, and awaiting input from an audience.
REVIEW: Cahoots Theatre’s Sweeter balances sunshine and rain
Wholly, Sweeter balances the rain and the sunshine, but doesn’t necessarily contrive its characters into blind optimism. It’s a narrative that allows for darkness and grief, and declares that it is okay to not be okay.
REVIEW: WILDWOMAN at Soulpepper is a magnificent beast
The show is daring, seductive, and unafraid to be absolutely unhinged: you will laugh, and you will be shocked.
