Everything’s Better in Baseball Season. It just is. The sun is shining, patios are opening, school will be letting out and, most important of all, my boys are back on TV and (very soon!) at the Rogers Centre. As a Jays fan, the season opener kicked off 2012 with a spectacular bang as my boys […]
I know, I know, these are unforgivably late. But our annual Award Nominee Interview Series ballooned to 50 people and took forever to roll out. There are still a few TV/Theatre interviews to come but, in the mean time, we can at least announce the winners of the second annual My Cinema Awards. (Read the […]

In my first season covering The Shaw Festival there was one actor who really stood out as the most eclectic and compelling performer. The chameleonic Steven Sutcliffe stole my attention with a show-saving […]
Sometimes my beloved Stratford Festival has the greatest marketing strategies ever. I’m not sure if this will actually sell any tickets that wouldn’t have otherwise been sold, but it makes me incredibly giddy, and that’s something at least. Watch Hero and Claudio from the 2012 season’s Much Ado About Nothing spout Shakespeare’s most famous love […]
