A hand holds the Tosca programme in front of of the stage. A large handwritten letter is projected onto the screen.
Wow! Tosca was amazing, the visuals were stunning, and the cast was perfect. The titular Tosca (tonight performed by Catherine Thornsley) was riveting, utterly luminous. This one plays until the 24! #Opera #YYJ

Double header at #VictoriaFilmFest today! Super enjoyed A Magnificent Life (just wish it were in French). Adored the awkwardness of Mile End Kicks! #movies #YYJ
Film fest tonight!
A really good lesson in reading your film fest guide: I showed up to the wrong theatre at first and had also somehow failed to catch until it started that this is in fact a musical. #VicFilm #Capitol6 #FilmFest #YYJ
Film fest number 2! Jimpa! #yyjfilmfest #VicFilmFest
The poster for hallo Betty. The lead actress stands facing the viewer in a green cardigan while standing in a boardroom with an image of Betty Bossi behind her.
First up for film fest 2026 - Hallo Betty
I truly enjoyed this one, sweet and real and an honest version of imperfect feminism.

A blue mug with a speckled brown glaze is topped with marshmallows, a graham cracker crumble, and a squiggle of chocolate. It looks delicious!
And we finished the night with a stop at Lure for their s’mores hot chocolate. Perfection! #LureYYJ #HotChocolateFestYYJ

A shot of the title screen before the movie starts. It features the Vic logo wearing a Santa hat and a poster of Dr. Zhivago

Finally got to see a Ronnie Burkett show! 🤩 Little Dickens was an utter BLAST and @wonderfulfroggo and I were lucky enough to be pulled onstage as two of four audience guests! If you’re seeing the show, don’t be afraid to say yes, Ronnie’s doing all the hard work!
A hand holds the white Christmas programme in front of the stage. It features read background and four actors in red costumes smiling at the camera.

Saw Birdy by Hung Dance tonight and I’m stunned. It was utterly moving, precise, and enthralling from moment one.
Absolutely incredible!

Tonight we caught Pisuwin at the Port Theatre! An absolutely mind blowing ballet set to the music of Jeremy Dutcher!
Ben Caplan was sublime tonight, I had literal goosebumps and all of us were moved to dance within moments. Tonight was incredible top to bottom. He played a few from Old Stock, a few favorites, and called us sweeties as he shared new amazing tunes, and unexpectedly sang us a Disney song too. WOW.
A hand holds the number program - A black and white illustration of three men in a line looking down on a man sitting in a couch
What a provoking show! So much to ponder, and lots of “but what did you think about…”. A gripping and intense two hander, “A Number” runs until Nov 16th! www.dandeliontheatre.ca #YYJ #Theatre #LocalArt
The moon peeks out behind Craigdarroch castle - with beautiful stone masonry and several balconies.
Finally got my act together to see murder on paper street! This improvised Agatha Christie was awesome from top to bottom - literally! We got to tour the whole castle! The run is sold out, but Paper Street always has something fun coming up! #Theatre #Improv #YYJ
