One thought on “Cheap Theatre in Toronto the Week of Sep 21st, 2015”

  1. Was wondering if you have seen The House of Yes at the Storefront Theatre on Bloor W? I can’t believe the depth of talent in this cast. I was so gripped by the performance I literally could not stand for about five minutes after the production ended. The gamut and intensity of emotion was phenomenal!
