I’d just been wondering about Canopy Theatre recently, and how I missed them last year – and, lo and behold, my new pal Lizzie sends me and some friends an e-mail suggesting we go see Lysistrata – the sex strike. It opened last night and runs until Aug 6, performed Wed – Sat at 8 p.m. outdoors on Philosopher’s Walk at U of T. Directed by AD Andrea Wasserman, the cast features Alum pals Rob Candy, Conor Hefferon and Laura Vincent.

And here’s their teaser (WARNING: adult content):
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the extreme heat, tonight’s performance (Thurs, July 21) has been cancelled.
The Guild Theatre Festival is still running The Cherry Orchard (http://www.guildfestivaltheatre.ca/index.php) till the end of the month and Driftwood Theatre Group recently kicked off their tour of MacBeth (http://driftwoodtheatre.com/).
Man, with all this amazing theatre happening – not to mention a whole bunch of summer gatherings/meet-ups with friends – I’ve had to perform some serious social triage lately. ‘Cuz, you know, you just can’t do everything. So many choices, so little time – and lack of cloning or time machine technology.
Stay cool today, my friends – it’s nasty out there.
