Shaw Festival review: A fabulous physical comedy and moody garden show off the festival’s extremes
If all is fair in this world, One Man, Two Guvnors will be a smash for the Shaw Festival. The Secret Garden is a more mixed affair, but Gabriella Sundar Singh shines in the title role.

Shaw Festival reviews: My Fair Lady and Witness for the Prosecution sing
Through the Shaw Festival’s elegant, sharp handling, both works manage to feel fresh and germane to a 2024 audience.
