Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes is a thought-provoking drama about power and sex, with the #MeToo movement slowly creeping up on the characters. It touches on the needs of the young vs. the middle-aged, loneliness, and the consequences of choices. This play will stir important discussions on the boundaries between people and how these […]
Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors is a very unexpected version of the gothic horror classic, “Dracula” by Bram Stoker. More farce than frightening, this delicious show is hysterically funny, as quick-paced as lightening in Transylvania, and very sexy. This show is the perfect antidote to the spooky season’s shorter days and longer nights. Very-loosely adapted […]
April Fools is a very sexy, crazy, uninhibited musical journey of a woman’s walk on the wild side. It takes the audience inside her head with all of her desires, turmoil, how her impulses contradict against her and clash with reality. It is a jam-packed rock show done cabaret-style. It is at times thrilling, funny, […]

It examines humanity’s connection and responsibility to the environment with humour, intelligence, and a passion that bares not only the soul of the protagonist, but also that of the audience.

Singer-songwriter Paul Cargnello was frontman of 90s punk reggae band The Vendettas before charting with his successful solo career, then with his brother Christopher Cargnello as the Skinny Bros crafting some of the best funk, pop and rhythm & blues to come out of Montreal. A who’s who of […]
Carolyn Fe is one of Montreal’s original Renaissance women. She began her career as a contemporary dancer before acting in a variety of theatrical productions, TV and movie spots. Then she found her true voice singing jazz and blues in nightclubs and at festivals across Canada. I like to say blues icon Big Mama Thornton passed the […]
