List of Titles: September 27th-Babette’s Feast, Denmark, 1987 In 19th century Denmark, two adult sisters live in an isolated village with their father, who is the honored pastor of a small Protestant church that is almost a sect unto it- self. Although they each are presented with a real opportunity to leave the village, the sisters choose to stay with their father, to serve to him and their church. After some years, a French woman refugee, Babette, arrives at their door, begs them to take her in, and commits herself to work for them as maid/housekeeper/cook. Sometime after their father dies, the sisters decide to hold a dinner to commemorate the 100th anni- versary of his birth. Babette experiences unexpected good fortune and implores the sis- ters to allow her to take charge of the preparation of the meal. Although they are se- cretly concerned about what Babette, a Catholic and a foreigner, might do, the sisters allow her to go ahead. Babette then prepares the feast of a lifetime for the members of the tiny church and an important gentleman related to one of them. October 4th-Tampopo, Japan, 1985 A truck driver stops at a small family-run noodle shop and decides to help its fledgling business. The story is intertwined with various vignettes about the relationship of love and food.

November 29th-My Dinner with André, USA, 1981 Wallace Shawn and André Gregory, apparently playing themselves, share their lives over the course of an evening meal at a restaurant. Gregory, a theatre director from New York, is the more talkative of the pair. He relates to Shawn his tales of dropping out, travelling around the world, and experiencing the variety of ways people live, such as a monk who could balance his entire weight on his fingertips. Shawn listens avidly, but questions the value of Gregory’s seeming abandonment of the pragmatic aspects of life.

  • Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2015
    Jan 15 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 161st birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 7 to Jan. 11. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at Annie Moore's, and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morn- ing, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's. The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Alan Bradley, co-author of MS. HOLMES OF BAKER STREET (2004), and author of the award-winning "Flavia de Luce" series; the title of his talk was "Ha! The Stars Are Out and the Wind Has Fallen" (his paper will be published in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal). The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's Restaurant was well attended, as always, and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton and An- drew Joffe) entertained the audience with an updated version of "The Sher- lock Holmes Cable Network" (2000). The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey Award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber), which honors the most whimsical piece in The Ser- pentine Muse last year: the winner (Jenn Eaker) received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17. And Otto Penzler's traditional open house at the Mysterious Bookshop provided the usual opportunities to browse and buy.

  • STUDY GUIDE David Mirvish Presents the Musical Stage
    STUDY GUIDE David Mirvish Presents The Musical Stage Company’s production of April 13-May 6, 2018 CAA Theatre, 651 Yonge Street Toronto To book student tickets to Fun Home, please contact Erin Schachter, Executive Director, Advancement at [email protected] or 416.927.7880 x224 1 Purpose of the Study Guide This study guide is designed for both teachers and students who will be attending The Musical Stage Company’s production of Fun Home, presented by David Mirvish as part of the 2017-2018 Off- Mirvish Series. The study guide includes background information to frame this production, such as information about The Musical Stage Company and Mirvish, a history of the graphic novel that the musical is based upon and its author, a timeline of the musical’s trajectory, biographies of its creators, and, of course, a thorough synopsis and other readable details about its content. We have also included a list of resources related to some of the show’s prominent themes, like LGBTQ+ identity as well as mental health and suicide prevention. In 2006, Alison Bechdel, a popular American cartoonist, published a graphic memoir called Fun Home that was hailed as one of the best books of the year by the New York Times, Times of London and Publisher’s Weekly among many. The comic-style novel explores Alison’s journey to realizing her queer sexuality at the same time as learning that her father, whom she had a tumultuous relationship with growing up, led a double life as a gay man. Shortly after Alison came out, her father stepped in front of a truck and died.

    Thank you for participating in Western Canada Theatre’s matinee programming! We would like you and your students to get the most out of your experience with us. Included in this package is some inside information exclusive to teachers and students, discussion questions, classroom activities, and online resources. We hope you find them useful before and after seeing the show. Please take a few minutes to review appropriate theatre etiquette with your students. While clapping and laughing are most appropriate for the theatre, whispering, talking, and excessive movement during the show is distracting to others in the audience and our actors on stage. Audience members are encouraged to get comfortable, remove coats, use the washroom and turn all electronic devices OFF before a show begins. Please remind your students that texting is not allowed during the show. Remembering theatre etiquette makes the show more enjoyable for everyone! 2 Pianos, 4 Hands A Study Guide Production Personnel ............................................................................................................. 1 Cast .................................................................................................................................................. 1 Creative Team .................................................................................................................................. 1 Western Canada Theatre Staff ................................................................................................ 2 Behind the Scenes .................................................................................................................

Photo by Bruce Zinger. 1 Opera Atelier enjoys a unique place in the Canadian theatre scene – specializing in period productions of opera and ballet. Our major focus has been on repertoire spanning from the Renaissance to early Classical periods, but the past few seasons have seen OA extending its reach to include Romantic repertoire and new original composition always played on period instruments. This year Opera Atelier celebrates its 33rd anniversary having just returned from the company’s debut with more than 70 artists at the Harris Theater for Music and Dance in Chicago and fully- staged performances in the Royal Opera House at Versailles and in the Royal Chapel.
