  • Theatre Under the Stars music directors welcome the chance to work outdoors in Stanley Park — Stir

    1 week ago | createastir.ca | Janet Smith

    THERE’S A SPECIAL quality to watching a theatre production unfold under a starry sky. Perhaps it’s because the twinkling cosmos add a bit more magic to already-whimsical stories; or maybe it’s that seeing a play outside on a warm July night bridges Vancouverites’ equally matched adoration for nature and the arts. Theatre Under the Stars captures that vibe year after year.

  • Gateway Theatre's just-announced 2025-26 season includes Kate Hamill’s cheeky Ms. Holmes & Ms. Watson – Apt. 2B and the hit musical Annie — Stir

    A FEMINIST TAKE on Sherlock Holmes, the beloved musical Annie, and more are on deck as Richmond’s Gateway Theatre announces its 2025-26 season. The mainstage lineup kicks off October 16 to 25 with Ms. Holmes & Ms. Watson – Apt. 2B, Kate Hamill’s cheeky reimagining of the famed British detective, with Lauren Taylor directing. It’s the same celebrated playwright who scripted the hit revamp of Pride & Prejudice last season at the venue.

  • Bruno Hubert reflects on his Montreal roots ahead of Vancouver International Jazz Festival concert — Stir

    EXPO 86: BOON OR BOONDOGGLE? The jury is still out on the long-term economic and cultural impact of the global expositionon B.C., with some arguing that it established Vancouver as a truly “world class” city, whatever that means, while others are convinced that it marked the end of affordable rents, plentiful arts venues, and relaxed West Coast living. One thing we know, however, is that Expo played a major role in establishing our city as a Mecca for jazz musicians from Quebec.

  • Allen Moyle's counterculture classic The Rubber Gun gets the 2k restoration it has so long deserved — Stir

    1 week ago | createastir.ca | Janet Smith

    IF YOU WERE lucky, you maybe caught The Rubber Gun, half-asleep and well-baked, via late-night cable transmission back in the late '80s. Allen Moyle’s extraordinary debut feature was lauded upon its release in 1977 but was almost forgotten a decade or so later, as if it was a little too hot to handle. Perhaps the film had to die alongside the drug-addled Montreal counterculture it so vividly depicted.

  • The costumes in Bard on the Beach's The Two Gentlemen of Verona are a full-on 1980s nostalgia trip — Stir

    1 week ago | createastir.ca | Janet Smith

    QUARTER-BACK-ISSUE SHOULDER pads. Pretty in Pink pastels. Layered leg warmers. And beyond-big hair. Costume designer Carmen Alatorre has been having a lot of fun playing with those retro styles and more, as she creates the costumes for Bard on the Beach’s nostalgic ’80s-set Shakespearean comedy Two Gentlemen of Verona.
