How to Fight a Cold Snap in Ottawa

Winter in Toronto, this year at least, has been amazing. Most days have hovered somewhere between 1 and 5 degrees (Celsius for any Americans reading this) and the snow melts away as soon as it arrives.  But I will be in Ottawa this weekend, in the middle of what is being dubbed a "cold snap". I don't like the sound of that at all.

So here's what I plan on doing about it - stay in one spot.  More specifically, the Studio Theatre at the Irving Greenberg Theatre Centre for the undercurrents Festival.

Care to join me?

Saturday

2:00 pm HIGHWAY 63: THE FORT MAC SHOW 4:00 pm LIVE FROM THE BELLY OF A WHALE 7:00 pm AND THEN IT HAPPENS 9:00 pm FALLING OPEN

And on Sunday, I'll be closing out my festival adventures at 2:00 pm with recent Canada Reads winner CARMEN AGUIRRE’S BLUE BOX.

You can also expect some Live Tweeting between shows and maybe a blog update or two thanks to the Great Canadian Theatre Company's free public WiFi. How most other theatre companies have not gotten on board the WiFi band wagon, I do not know, but kudos to GCTC for leading the charge.

 

As always, I'll be seeing you at the theatre!
