BWW Review: 9 TO 5 Delights Edmonton
Judy, Violet, and Doralee dream of revenge on their lying, sexist, egotistical boss.

9 TO 5: THE MUSICAL Comes to The Citadel Theatre This Month
The end of this month will see the opening of 9 To 5: The Musical based on Dolly Parton’s hit movie and title song.

BWW Review: CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL Doesn't 'Meat' My Expectations
If you bill a show as 'From the co-creator of South Park and The Book of Mormon' you're going to set the expectations pretty high. Cannibal! The Musical opened last night in Toronto, and as much as I really wanted to like it - it came across rather flat, even in the intimate Panasonic Theatre.
Liam Tobin & Elicia MacKenzie to Star in CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL at Panasonic Theatre
Starvox Entertainment today announced casting details for Trey Parker's Cannibal! The Musical on stage at David Mirvish's Panasonic Theatre (651 Yonge St.) from Feb. 10 to Mar. 8, 2015. The highly anticipated new production tells the hilarious, and (mostly) true story of Alferd Packer, the only person ever convicted of cannibalism in America. Based on Parker's fan-favourite film of the same name, Cannibal! The Musical will premiere a brand new production featuring new songs, new jokes, and an all-Canadian cast led by Liam Tobin as Packer (Shrek the Musical, MTC's Next to Normal) and Elicia MacKenzie (The Sound of Music; winner of CBC's How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?) as Polly Pry, Packer's unexpected love interest.
