(Sponsored Post) Picture It Picture Books
Thank you so much to our sponsor Picture It Picture Books. We appreciate the support. Here’s a bit more information about them; please take the time to give it a quick read-through!
Picture It Picture Books is an independent Toronto-based publisher specializing in children’s picture books. The most important part about Picture It Picture Books is that they don’t have any pictures! We give our readers the opportunity to illustrate their very own books. By visualizing the images to a story as it unfolds and then committing those images to paper, readers engage with our texts in a meaningful, physical way. This increases reading comprehension and encourages readers to apply what they’ve learned to their own lives.
Our books are available online at Amazon.com, via our website, or in Toronto at Planet Kid in Roncesvalles and baby on the hip in Leslieville. Our books will also soon be available at major Indigo stores in the GTA! Check out our website for updates on our Indigo launch!

Five for Twenty (Or Less)
I culled this week’s five cheap theatre picks from the list of shows we’ve circulated to our writers. Each week, we at Mooney on Theatre pore over play listings from various Toronto sources and send a list of the most swoon-worthy shows to our writers, asking them to select a play to review from the list. Below, the five shows we’re most excited to have our reviewers check out. The good news? These shows are not only exciting, but they’re also all available for viewing at the low price of $20 or less! Prices are highlighted below for ease of reference. Read on and enjoy!

Our cheap Toronto theatre picks for this week focus on Theatre Passe Muraille, which currently has three affordable theatre options for your viewing pleasure. We’ve also thrown in a couple of other theatre events for you to check out that aren’t related to Theatre Passe Muraille, just for good measure. The Canadian Stage Company‘s splashy, inexpensive Festival of Ideas and Creation has us MoT contributers all hot and bothered, and we’re even excited about a show at Palmerston Library – yes, the library!

Cheap Theatre in Toronto for the Week of May 3, 2010

Five for Twenty (Or Less)
Our cheap Toronto theatre picks for this week have been inspired by none other than our very own editor, Miss Megan Mooney. Every week, Megan highlights the shows that she’s most excited about seeing in our weekly eye-catching theatre listings. (And if she could clone herself 500 times over, she would see them all!). I’ve decided to further highlight her choices by choosing the least expensive of Megan’s selections and sharing them with you in this week’s Five for Twenty (Or Less) post. So, grab a little cash (we promise, you’ll only need a little!), and see cheap theatre that makes Megan’s heart flutter into a flurry of excitement! Enjoy! Read the rest of this entry »
