I wasn't quite sure what to expect when walking into Therefore Choose Life, a new play based on a true story by Broadway leading man Jake Epstein and his mother Kathy Kacer, produced by The Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company. The play is about a man (Joseph, played by Avery Saltzman) who is married during the holocaust, and presumes his wife dead after being separated in a concentration camp. After the war he moves to Toronto and eventually remarries and has a son, never forgetting the love he lost. Thirty years later, just before his 25th wedding anniversary, he learns his first wife is alive and coming to see him. 

The Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company will present the world premiere of mother and son writing team, Kathy Kacer and Jake Epstein's THEREFORE CHOOSE LIFE, which will also launch the company's residency at the new Greenwin Theatre at the Toronto Centre for the Arts.

It's Always You, a new musical being presented at the 'Best of Fringe' is a delightful and impressive new work by Canadian writers Dan Redican (book/lyrics) and Scott White (music). The show looks at the choices people make, and how they affect the outcomes of our lives.

IT'S ALWAYS YOU written by Dan Redican (PUPPETS WHO KILL) with music by Scott White (TOP GUN! THE MUSICAL) has been turning away audiences from sold out performances since it opened at The Toronto Fringe on July 3. The piece was so popular that all of the advance tickets were snatched up early in the run. 40 additional tickets were available for those willing to line up at the door, and audiences arrived hours in advance of the box office opening to get a peek at this hit show.
