New @BelfryTheatre sparkfest review: @openpitpit's Busted Up encapsulates the beauty & complexity of the Yukon without overly romanticizing it. This born & raised Yukoner loved it. https://t.co/CdYlyxxqwh #yyj #yyjarts #yyjtheatre

A strong production with an evocative dystopic setting, the current @CCPACanada version of The Crucible is still (sadly) distressingly relevant for today's world. Review here: https://t.co/Bcw0Hk0pRs #yyjarts #yyjtheatre #oakbay

There’s a lot of heart to the Cdn classic “Good Night Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet)” if you just have fun with it & enjoy the ride. Directed by @janetmunsil, it runs to Dec 13 @CCPACanada. Read our review: https://t.co/jFLCPdBPkz #yyjarts #yyjtheatre #oakbay
