Don’t let the casual look on the face of my friend to the left fool you; the Plaza Flamingo establishment is one of the hottest tickets in downtown Toronto. It’s not exactly a nightclub, a dance hall or a restaurant, but it has elements of all three.
Rather than forcing you to walk from […]
As You Like It is one of Shakespeare’s more famous plays and a comedy, believed to have been written by the great playwright sometime between 1599 and 1600. It has been adapted for radio, film and for musical productions as well and the famous Shakespearean line “All the world’s a stage” is from this very […]

The Sony Centre for the Performing Arts in Toronto is locted at the intersection of Front and Yonge, giving it one of the most ideal locations in the city. Close enough to the downtown core to attract people from all over the […]
Three great composers will be finding their place downtown in what is going to be one of the best concert events to be put on this year in Toronto.
Mozart
Mozart has a number of distinctions as a composer, not least of which is his ability to be consistently prolific throughout his whole life. He actually put […]
George Frideric Handel was born in 1685 in Germany and is most definitely one of the best known German composers. He is famous for his composition of operas, of which Tamerlano is one.
Tamerlano premiered in the King’s Theatre in London on October 31, 1724. It was actually co-produced by Italian lyricist Nicola Francesco Haym, although […]
Mozart is an 18th century composer that was responsible for the creation of many well known and easily recognizable pieces, although of course some of them have been parodied to the extent that you might not initially realize that they were composed by him. He’s also probably one of my favourite composers, which is quite […]
The first time that The Nutcracker was presented was in the city of St. Petersburg in Russia in 1892. It is a tale of the wonderment of a child’s mind and over time it also grown to become synonymous with the celebration of Christmas. To that end, The National Ballet of Canada started performing their […]
The City Playhouse Theatre is set to be host to one of the most interesting events of early 2008 when they roll out the red carpet (or rather, should that be the green carpet?) for the 2008 Green Reel Environmental Film Festival.
The festival is designed to have a number of different documentaries as well as […]
One of the things that I absolutely love about living in Toronto is the fact that there are so many artists around. While there are a lot of visual artists around, this particular post is about someone that is very fun to watch in the performing art of music.
Bernie German is one of the most […]
Christmas is a very fun time, regardless of whether you celebrate it or not. You get the chance to be with your family, many of whom you may only see at that time. You get the chance to watch television and eat chocolate as much as your heart desires. And of course people that do […]
