Review: OPERATION MINCEMEAT at Royal Alexandra Theatre

Review: OPERATION MINCEMEAT at Royal Alexandra Theatre

by Samantha Wu · October 30, 2026

The year is 1943, in the thick of World War II, and Hitler appears to be winning. The Allied Forces are desperate for an upswing and MI5 may have the solution - all they need is a stolen corpse, falsified military plans, a fake love letter, and a history-altering ruse. The true story of Operation Mi…

Review: THE DESCENT OF ORPHEUS at Koerner Hall

by Keira Grant · October 24, 2026

Opera Atelier specializes in 17th- and 18th-century works, and Co-Artistic Directors Marshall Pynkoski and Jeannette Lajeunesse Zingg are highly adept at bringing them to life with fidelity to the conventions of the time. Impressively, they manage to do this in a way that never feels tone deaf to mo…

Review: PROPHETESS at Tarragon Theatre

Review: PROPHETESS at Tarragon Theatre

by Samantha Wu · October 16, 2026

Prophetess is a rabbit hole kind of tale, one that's a chaotic descent into madness. Playing now at the Tarragon Theatre until November 1 2026, this dynamic production is written by Ho Ka Kei (Jeff Ho) and directed/dramaturged by Mike Payette. Prophetess is the kind of show that is ripe for theatre …

Review: COSĺ FAN TUTTE at Four Seasons Centre For The Performing Arts

by Keira Grant · October 4, 2026

The Canadian Opera Company’s remount of its 2014 production of Cosí Fan Tutte, originally directed by Atom Egoyan, brings to bear all of the performance and creative excellence for which the COC is known. However, in the post- #MeToo era, and amidst the Cornell 7 scandal, this 236-year-old work h…

Review: BOOTY CANDY at Buddies In Bad Times Theatre

Review: BOOTY CANDY at Buddies In Bad Times Theatre

by Keira Grant · October 2, 2026

Booty Candy is perfect for 2026. It has just the right blend of hilarity and  hyperbole to take your mind off current events and just enough home truths to give a voice to the shared pain, fear and rage of all of us whose very existence is subversive during these turbulent times. At a time when pla…

Review: WALDEN at The Theatre Centre

Review: WALDEN at The Theatre Centre

by Ilana Lucas · September 27, 2026

WALDEN is more successful in its exploration of family dynamics than as a work of speculative fiction. However, Icarus Theatre’s production at The Theatre Centre, directed by Erik Richards, still takes off for an engaging 90 minutes of theatre.…

Review: LA TRAVIATA at Four Seasons Centre For The Performing Arts

Review: LA TRAVIATA at Four Seasons Centre For The Performing Arts

by Keira Grant · September 20, 2026

Canadian Opera Company’s season opener La Traviata pulls out all the stops and sets an extremely high bar for the rest of its 26-27 offerings. My companion has been coming to the opera with me for many years, and she was blown away, proclaiming this as one of her all-time faves. “A triumph,” s…

Review: SPRING AWAKENING at Soulpepper Theatre

Review: SPRING AWAKENING at Soulpepper Theatre

by Elizabeth Armstrong · September 18, 2026

Spring Awakening at Soulpepper Theatre is a well-executed and expertly-crafted sensory delight (though the dark themes this play tackles are far from delightful) that offers an intense, almost cinematic theatre-going experience.…

Review: AMADEUS at Shaw Festival
