Review: BIG STUFF at Streetcar Crowsnest

Review: BIG STUFF at Streetcar Crowsnest

by Ilana Lucas — November 17, 2024

Matt Baram and Naomi Snieckus, a Second City comedy duo who are also married in real life, present a funny and meaningful meditation about what our things mean to us in BIG STUFF, using anecdotes and gentle audience participation to commune over the items we just can’t bring ourselves to toss.

Review: MAMMA MIA! at Ed Mirvish Theatre

by Ilana Lucas — October 14, 2024
