Our favourite theatre productions of 2024, in Toronto and beyond

REVIEW: Canadian Stage revives the Ross Petty panto with pop songs, puns, and a pinch of Ozdust

Making a case for the panto’s return, The Wizard of Oz is full of local references and charm, and perhaps even some surprise guests to fill audiences with hometown pride.

REVIEW: Titaníque loves Céline Dion with all its heart

Content quibbles aside, Titaníque’s inarguable accomplishment is musical: What an amazing showcase for a Canadian cast’s vocal chops and capacity to deliver character through song.
