Greetings!

 

The holiday season is fast approaching and that means this is our last ENewsletter of 2012!

 

We'll be hard at work over the holiday season getting ready for the opening of Robin Hood: The Legendary Musical Comedy. We know everyone is as excited about this new Canadian musical as we are, so to tie you over until the opening, we've included some fun videos about the show in this edition.

 

We also wanted to take a moment to remind you that UofTTix will be closed as of Dec. 21st for in person and phone sales. They will reopen on Monday, Jan. 7th at 11am.

 

As always, you will still be able to buy tickets during the holiday closure online 24 hours, 7 days a week at www.uofttix.ca.

 

From all of us at Hart House Theatre, we wish you and yours a very happy and safe holiday season.

 

See you in 2013!

Sing-a-long with the cast of Robin Hood: The Legendary Musical Comedy!
Can't get enough of Robin Hood: The Legendary Musical Comedy?
We sure can't! We joined the cast in rehearsal and recorded one of our favourite songs from the show, "Poverty".
  
Listeners be warned - it's so catchy you'll be singing it for weeks to come!
  
Meet the villains of Robin Hood: The Legendary Musical Comedy!

Behind every good hero there is an even better villain, or in Robin Hood's case, two villains. Meet Prince John and his trusted sidekick, the Sheriff of Nottingham, two of the most hilariously evil bad guys you will ever meet.

A Show Not to Be Missed!
  
The Director of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and good friend of Hart House Theatre, Matt Gorman, is currently appearing in the Toronto premiere of Cart/Horse Theatre's This Lime Tree Bower.
  
Written by Conor McPherson, This Lime Tree Bower is the overlapping tale of three young Dubliners recalling a fateful weekend that involved an assault, an embarrassing episode at a college lecture and a robbery done for retribution that ties them all together. This production showcases McPherson's unique gift for story-telling and the power of his deceptively simple style.
  
An intimate evening of theatre marking the directorial debut of Dora Award winning actor Sarah Dodd, starring Shaw Festival veteran Gray Powell with Cart/Horse Artistic Director Matthew Gorman and newcomer Anthony MacMahon.

 

December 7 to 22
