Hans Zimmer masterpiece
It's not often that I buy soundtracks but this one's use of the pipe organ is incredible.
Heartbreaking
"One felt nothing at all from the dead. They died, and then they were gone, and one's heart ached from the sudden absence of feeling more than from any surfeit." (pg. 247)
Lots to digest from this

Constellations at CanStage
Choice and destiny collide in British theatre luminary Nick Payne's startlingly original play about the infinite possibilities of love (and the quantum multiverse). A man and a woman's chance encounter sets off a singular chain of events where each path they might take shapes an entirely different future. Their sweeping and spellbinding romantic journey will defy the boundaries of the world we think we know. Director Peter Hinton brings his award-winning vision to this five-star West End and Broadway hit. ROLAND Graham Cuthbertson MARIANNE Cara Ricketts Courtesy CanStage.
Dollhouse at CanStage
Prolific Canadian dancer/choreographer Bill Coleman ( Older & Reckless ) confronts a series of almost biblical challenges in this eye-opening spectacle about a man out of sync with his surroundings. Objects fall, shatter and move of their own accord creating a unique soundscape that accompanies one man's descent into chaos. Coleman, a master performer, plays the role of modern fakir as he navigates through situations, at times verging on the comic, culminating in a hypnotic symphony of sight and sound created and performed in collaboration with celebrated composer Gordon Monahan.

With compassion, great humour, and a fine eye for the quirks of contemporary life, The Realistic Joneses dives deep below the surface to expose the extraordinary heroism of the everyday. ★★★1/2 (out of 4) “Eno’s is an original theatrical voice; a poignant and pitch-perfect production; superb cast” – The Globe & Mail “That [Broadway] production, with a starry cast, was good, but the Tarragon one, directed by Richard Rose, is better. It’s certainly much funnier, the four actors feast on the wrong-footing and second-guessing with which these Joneses strive to keep up with one another.” –...
