review haiku:
improvised silly
this train to cincinnati
happily goes nowhere
Amid some truly inspired moments, such as the titular “Argument with a Dolphin,” this train ride to Cincinnati (yours will invariably be a different trip) kept the chuckles coming fairly regularly. Watching improv is hit or miss, but Without Annette cleverly gets the audience to choose their fate, [...]

review haiku:
i don’t have a clue
just what the hell i’m watching
but it sure is fun
Man, do these guys have energy. Crazy amounts of blissfully infectious energy that fills the room and makes you sweat from every pore. Ok, maybe that was the lack of air-conditioning, but you get my point. Sometimes however, they stink to [...]

Our internet buddies over in Newfoundland who build CELTX, the pre-production theatre and film management software (read: scriptwriting, plus lots lots more), have just released Celtx 1.0 !!!
We worked with Celtx for the Assembly international art relays last year and they’re lovely, hardworking, and helpful folk. So check out the latest version of their software. [...]

Disclaimer: I am not a fan of Paul-André Fortier’s choreography. So please read this post with that in mind; if you have enjoyed his work in the past, then there is a good chance you would like this one as well.

I attended the Best of Montreal Night for the third annual Sketch Comedy Festival at Theatre Ste. Catherine. To sum up the whole night I can say I was pleasantly and vaguely entertained the whole evening. Nothing was fall down funny….or laugh out loud funny but I had a nice warm feeling of amusement for [...]

Disclaimer: Nous étions une fois is a French play, so I will allow myself to write the review in French. There is little hope that you would understand the play if you cannot understand the review anyway.
D’abord, un aveu: j’ai quitté la représentation de Nous étions une fois à l’entracte. Non pas que c’était terrible, [...]

As if there wasn’t enough dance in Montreal right now with the FTA, there is also the OFF.T.A., the OFF UQAM, and Clash. Looks like the perfect time to check out dance or theatre or whatever-you-call-that performance, especially since all of the shows at these events are cheap or even free.
Clash is already underway at [...]

In an effort to build up anticipation for the dance and theatre Festival TransAmériques, I have avoided dance for the past few weeks. Last year’s first edition turned out to be a most pleasant surprise, offering the kind of works too seldom seen, those that polarize audiences, that have the courage to leave no one [...]
