At Waterfront Theatre until April 23, 2022
If Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls fulfils Carousel Theatre’s vision of “empowering young people to become agents of positive change”, the play will have done its job. Here’s hoping.

A Public Reading of an Unproduced Screenplay About the Death of Walt Disney

Jericho Arts Centre until April 17, 2022
From the moment actor Paul Herbert declares, “I’m Walt Disney”, Herbert had me. Walt: charismatic but highly suspect. Suave but oily. Charming but condescending. Manipulative. A  family man whose daughter hates him. But quite possibly a genius. Certainly an innovator. An American icon. You simply can’t dismiss Walt Disney and Herbert is absolutely unforgettable in the role.
