  • Winding down our presenting season - it's been a blast! 19.4.2013

    Well, last weekend we wrapped up our first “season” of presenting shows – and we’re pleased to say that it was a success!  We’re thrilled with how The Double went.  TheatreRUN’s “schizo-comic-neurotic-thriller” was a beautiful, energetic and thoroughly entertaining adaptation of the Dostoëvski short story. From the feedback we’ve been getting, audiences loved it and the company told us they had a great time here in Kitchener.

  • The Critics Respond to Body 13 22.1.2013

    WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING...

    “BODY13 in fact uses a day at the beach as a modern-day metaphor for life in contemporary Canada…”

    “BODY13 speaks of the Canadian dream we all share with a theatrical eloquence that is as refreshing as it is welcome. Unabashedly and joyfully sexual, it embraces diversity on all fronts and makes of it all a celebration as they tell us seven little stories about a big dream we all share.”

  • Body 13 On Tour 2013 7.1.2013
