Incredible talent and stage design in my fav intimate theatre. The performance was so interesting and exciting it had us on the edge of our seats. It is a memorable show that goes well beyond its famous line: you can’t handle the truth. Tom Cruise, you gotta see your new competition.

This is a wonderful facility in which to watch shows. Every seat in the place provides good viewing. The place is spotlessly clean, lots of women's washrooms and intermission snacks. There is an elevator for diabled people. Unfortunately there is not enough parking and both times although arriving half an hour early, we have had to locate street parking that was not real close.

Our family did Great Aunt Gertrude’s Gazillions and had so much fun! We escaped w only a few minutes to spare, the “helpful hint” buttons were nice, as with those you could have as many or few clues as you needed. Overall, it was a great experience and the management is great as well.

If you're visiting Canada & Ontario for the first time this museum should be included on your 'bucket list'. Having visited here I fell I now have a full & proper understanding of how life was for those early settlers from many many different countries who first arrived years ago. You will learn so much about how Canada has been built up on many years of migration. Well worth a visit. Suitable for young children.
