The pursuit of higher thinking, better relationships, better quality food, focusing on community and social engagement, sustainability and discovering new avenues for creativity - all within the City of Calgary

Included.

January in the city of Calgary means that it's time for the High Performance Rodeo, an outstanding theatre festival. The Rodeo runs from the 6th to the 30th.

This year, I'll be reviewing some shows for Downtown Calgary's Blog
But I thought I would breakdown my picks for this year.


One Yellow Rabbit Theatre
Smash Cut Freeze

I'm slightly biased when it comes to this production because I went to school with Chris Duthie. He's incredibly talented and I haven't really seen anything from One Yellow Rabbit that hasn't been entertaining. Last year's  OYR production of Kawasaki Exit was outstanding. Probably my favourite of the Rodeo. And this year's submission is sure to be successful. The play is about a family in full disfunction in the 1950s. It will probably have a great combination of humour and insight.
