    Image features Audrey Dwyer from a photo by Avital Zemer. 1 A Message from the Artistic and Executive Directors Welcome to Seussical – one of our favourite musicals at YPT. Apart from being great fun and featuring terrific performances, this is a profound story. At its centre is Horton the Elephant’s assertion that "a person’s a person no matter how small". Obviously, these are words to live by. They are also a call to action for young people – to think and care about those who are sometimes forgotten or unseen. We hope Seussical inspires all audience members, young and not so young, to be conscious of the impact of their actions. Think how much better the world would be. To quote another song from the show "Oh the thinks you can think – if you’re willing to try..." Our show runs through the Holidays with public performances every day between December 27th and 31st. Perhaps you know someone for whom Seussical tickets would make a great gift! We wish you the very best for the Holidays and the New Year to come. ALLEN MACINNIS NANCY J. WEBSTER Artistic Director Executive Director Young People’s Theatre is a member of the Professional Association of Canadian Theatres (PACT) and engages, under the terms of the Canadian Theatre Agreement, professional Artists who are members of Canadian Actors’ Equity Association.

  • COMMUNITY BOND REPORT 2021 Celebrating Five Years of Collaboration, Community and Connections, Sparking Impact Within Our Walls and #Beyondthewalls
    COMMUNITY BOND REPORT 2021 Celebrating five years of collaboration, community and connections, sparking impact within our walls and #beyondthewalls FINDING HOPE IN THE MIDST OF A GLOBAL PANDEMIC 2020 was a year unlike any other we have witnessed. Office buildings have been hollowed out and how we return to them will never be the same. For some, they may never return. A few of Canada’s largest companies are declaring working from home will be the new norm and they're not alone, many are following suit. Social purpose spaces (like Innovation Works) shape how our communities are designed and built, and they matter for equitable, healthy, and complete communities as well as vibrant local economies (source: Future of Good). “I am supporting the Community Bond because I believe in social purpose real estate, and believe that investing in a shared space makes our communities stronger and healthier.” -Jeffrey Good Innovation Works is a place for solutions. We default to optimism. In the face of a global pandemic, we are proud of how we responded; adapting with speed to meet the needs of our co-tenants, members and our community. We innovated, finding new ways to connect people and to spark impact. And through it all we remained hopeful, optimistic, confident of our collective ability as a community of social innovators to come out better on the other side. “As a co-creator of Innovation Works I am a believer in inclusive spaces that foster human connection and move ideas forward to spark community impact. Investing in Innovation Works in this new way is in the spirit of shared ownership and a long-term commitment.” -Michelle Baldwin HOW WE RESPONDED Our first tough call was to shut down Innovation Works, one week before the province ordered all non-essential businesses to close.

  • War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada's Military, 1952-1992 by Mallory
    War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence

    EARTHBOUND to EYES WEST Earthbound Sun 1:00-1:30 p.m., 6 Jun-19 Sep 1982 A half-hour, Sunday aftertoon, summer series, Earthbound examined questions of the country's resources and related industries and the environment. Producer Jane du Broy drew from material originating in different regions to explore problems such as the failure of Canada's forest industry to compete in foreign markets, the revitalization of the fisheries industries in the Atlantic provinces, the debate over grain transportation costs and their effects on the western provinces, and the comparative prices of oil in Canada and the U.S.A. The host of Earthbound was Fred Langer. The show's executive producer was Robert Petch. Ed And Ross Thu 5:00-5:30 p.m. 4 Jul-25 Sep 1957 Thu 5:00-5:30 p.m., 2 Jul-24 Sep 1959 In this half-hour, weekly broadcast for children ages eight to fourteen, Ed McCurdy and Ross Snetsinger lived in a magical house. Snetsinger's hand puppet pal, Foster, led them through the building's sliding panels into secret passages. They all enjoyed themselves by making up secret societies, by inventing and building gadgets, with music led by singer and guitarist McCurdy, and with games. They also invited friends, such as jugglers and acrobats, to come down to their place from upstairs and perform. John Kennedy produced Ed and Ross in Toronto. Ed McCurdy and Ross Snetsinger and Foster were all well known to the CBC's young television audiences. The Ed Evanko Show Sat 7:00-7:30 p.m., 24 Jun-22 Jul 1967 Singer and actor Ed Evanko starred in his own musical variety show from Winnipeg in the summer of 1967.
