Covid-19 has caused such an upheaval in the Theatre Community. Most of the smaller theatre companies have had to shut down and wait the pandemic out. I was fortunate to secure the one gig at the Fringe Festival – TrudeauMania. That show was so much fun and when I emailed the show details to myContinue reading “My newest Project”

Alex and I had some big plans for 2020. We were going to head back to Europe for three weeks of exploration. Alas, the pandemic put a grinding halt to those plans. Fortunately, I took out cancellation insurance. While it took four months of emails and phone calls, we eventually received a full refund (lessContinue reading “Pandemic Renovations”

This is my sister Anna’s birthday today. I miss her. That is all.

Well, this year has been a real treat, to be certain. I am glad that it is almost over but, I am astounded at how quickly it wrapped up. There have been so many things that have befallen us in the past 12 months, it is frightening. Rather than breakdown the photos by month, IContinue reading “2020 – What a year! What a year! Year in Review”

Hello everyone! So, I am sad to report that the two shore encore scheduled for next weekend has been cancelled due to the updated Covid-19 pandemic safety measures. Hello reader(s): So, after a six show run at the Mini-Fringe on Granville Island, I thought that I would be putting this show in my treasured memoriesContinue reading “TrudeauMania LIVES! – UPDATE”

It is with a real sense of sadness that I am writing this. TrudeauMania closed last night after a great run. I cannot begin to thank the cast and crew for including me in this production. Kudos to all for putting on a stellar production during this pandemic. TrudeauMania – the song! The Legend! YouContinue reading “TrudeauMania – Closing Night”

I am beyond ecstatic! Last month, I got a message from a friend who I worked with at the Metro Theatre. She told me that she knew of a production that was looking for a Stage Manager and wanted to know if she could pass my info on to them. I said, “Sure! Why not?”Continue reading “Theatre is coming back!!!!”

It’s OCTOBER?????? When the heck did that happen? Was I asleep and missed it? 2020 has certainly been a roller coaster, to be sure. Let’s recap, shall we? In January, I was supposed to Stage Manage a Play at the Metro. I left that production just before it went on stage. Don’t ask. It wasContinue reading “October – Hallowe’en or bust – (Most likely a bust)”

Haven’t written for a while but, to be perfectly honest, I didn’t have much to say. Even now, I am struggling to find something to write about. Covid-19 is still here. The American Elections are still looming. The Canadian Government is still embroiled in a “scandal”. There are forest fires across the West Coast ofContinue reading “September Musings”

I am back at work! Hooray! I am so happy to be back in my office. It isn’t the biggest office but, it is all mine. As you can see, I have a number of plants in my office. I don’t have any natural light coming in but, all these plants seem to do reasonablyContinue reading “Covid-19 update – Post Quarantine”
