The true story of Operation Mi…

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.

Review: SPRING AWAKENING at Soulpepper Theatre

by Elizabeth Armstrong · September 18, 2026
