Theatre Calgary has announced the full cast and creative team for its upcoming international premiere of Beaches the Musical, beginning previews on May 18 in the Arts Commons Max Bell Theatre.
This is a great production for anyone, whether or not they’re a Beatles/Shakespeare superfan. You couldn’t ask for a more accessible Shakespearean play, and the music is a perfect fit for the story.
My expectations are high. It almost feels unfair. Just as my fellow patrons expect me to be some sort of fancy theatre critic, I sit in a fancy theatre and I expect a fancy show.
