Shows that Caught Our Eye in Toronto for the Week of July 30th, 2018
Make the most of summer in Toronto by catching one of the stellar shows performing around the city! Musicals, progressive comedy and a whole lot of Shakespeare in the Park are happening this week.
Prohibition-era adaptation of Shakespeare classic in Toronto is fun for all ages
Shakespeare played out-of-doors is a time-honoured tradition, and especially appropriate for plays set in nature, such as Rosalynde (or, As You Like It). The main setting is the Forest of Arden, where a number of people have fled to avoid persecution at the hands of an evil Duke. Driftwood‘s production is a “Bard’s Bus Tour”, playing in various municipalities around Southern Ontario, with a vision to provide quality Shakespearean theatre to people of varying locations and income levels — all shows are either free or Pay What You Can. Driftwood does provide a quality experience, with skilled performances winning my attention over many distractions on the evening I attended.
