La Nouvelle Scène

This weekend has something for everyone: from skating to Christmas lights to an art draw to a repair cafe, you’re sure to find something up your alley. Enjoy!

Many Canadians don’t get the chance to visit the faraway territories of Canada’s North. Yet Nunavut, the Northwest Territories, and Yukon are all home to some of the most interesting and creative artists who themselves often do not get a chance to go “down south.”

La série Face à Face est de retour dans de nouveaux espaces à Ottawa pour célébrer les chorégraphes canadiens émergents.

L’heure est au retour de la 7e édition de la biennale Zones Théâtrales, un festival de théâtre qui a la particularité de proposer une programmation audacieuse et qui a le mandat de mettre en lumière les talents issus des communautés francophones canadiennes et des régions du Québec situées hors des grands pôles.

Jared Davidson: “Brown is a skilled magician, and those skills are on display here, but they’re hidden behind a lot of extra stuff that wasn’t necessary.”

To help you make your choices, Apt613 has assembled a crackerjack team of reviewers.

Amanda Dookie: “This was the best solo performance I’ve ever seen at the Ottawa Fringe Festival, in the several years that I have been reviewing plays.”

Mer Weinhold: ” Come for the blue sequined fish costume, stay for a beautiful, funny, tragic, touching play about the endurance of memory…”

Brian Carroll: “TED Talks are about ideas that are important to everybody… DEB Talks are about ideas that are not worth spreading.”

David Currie: “He’s a charming performer with good comedic timing, and an impressive ability to use his love of patterns to deliver a good music joke.”

Amanda Dookie: “I’m willing to bet you’ll walk away with a “take home” message after this show, even if it’s different from your neighbour’s.”
