In a joint article with other My Entertainment World website My Cinema, here is a preview photo from one of my most anticipated films of the year: Julie Taymour’s adapatation of Shakespeare’s The Tempest. Due out on December 10 (in the year of the play’s 400th anniversary) from Touchstone pictures, The Tempest stars Helen Mirren […]
There aren’t that many things that are remarkable about ABC Family (except, perhaps, it’s strangely high ratings). However, every time I speak with one of its stars I find that they have some remarkable things to say: wisdom beyond their characters, if you will.

Here’s where they stand in my estimation: 1) Tommy (the cute one) This week’s set was […]
If you’re a theatre fan in the Toronto area this weekend, My Theatre and its parent company My Entertainment World would like to recommend No Strings Theatre’s production of Les Miserables (School Edition) playing today through Saturday at the Al Green Theatre.
