we are not afraid of the dark Explores Life, Death, Purpose and Meaning at The Theatre Centre
we are not afraid of the dark, playing at The Theatre Centre in Toronto, is billed as an “intensely intimate one-woman/two-ghost show”. The show is based on a series of conversations between the late actor Tracy Wright and Belgian theatre director Tine Van Aerschot, while Wright was battling cancer.
Sterling Studio Theatre in Toronto brings a Woody Allen classic, Central Park West, to their May One Acts
Woody Allen’s Central Park West isn’t so much about people and the things that happen to them as it’s about the idea of how funny and awful they can be. Those familiar with Allen will find all his trademark obsessions here: New York socialites, neurotic rambling, and—my favourites—the unforgiving cosmos and the terror of existence.
They say that variety is the spice of life. But, I mean, who has the time to go out and buy a whole bunch of different spices to make their life more exciting? No thanks. If you’re like me, and you’d rather find variety of a more dramatic fashion, Toronto’s got a few shows playing this week that’ll give you a lot of variety for only a little bit of cash. So save yourself the trip to the spice store, and go see some Cheap Theatre!
