You Can’t Pick A Winner Without One

I’m talking about the Fringe Festival Guide. They went on sale yesterday and I got mine at Chapters. The guide is like a racing form for plays. Past winners, fast out of the gate thoroughbreds, favourites and long shots - they’re all in there and like my Daddy always said, “You can’t pick a winner without one.”

Josephine Baker

Tymesha Harris stars as Josephine Baker. We were sad to hear that Josephine! wasn’t going to be a holdover.

An Evening at Hotel Vortubra

It was a magical night at Hotel Vortubra - scary & sweet, I think it’s a new genre.  

Rendezvous at La Cité

It was a beautiful evening for a meet up at La Cité Rotunda. Songs, beer and hats figured prominently. 

...And We're Off Like a Velociraptor

Ok, it wasn't a great start to this year's Fringe - buying a Frequent Fringer Pass online was an exercise in frustration.
