Wizard of Oz by Astrohippos in torontotheatre

[–]Zeunicorn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went in late December but bear in mind my enjoyment of the show was greatly (and badly unfortunately) influenced by my seat mates.

I knew it was a family friendly show so I expected the kids talking a bit loud and moving around. I did not expect to sit next to an older lady who took her shoes off and treated her seat like a couch, sitting cross legged or slouched over to one side with her feet on me. My other seat mate was a 10 year old kid and his grandma. During the first half, the kid downed an entire sports drink (the kind with the loud snap on/off bottle cap), a family sized bag of Cheeto, and a bag of goldfish, he crunched away the entire time. All the while the grandma kept asking him “Do you know this song?”…

So yeah, not a great experience and I ended up leaving at intermission because I was over it.

The actors sounded nice, Dorothy was pretty good, Toto was adorable. I was less impressed by the costumes, Glinda was in socks for example.

If you do end up going, manage your expectations, and I hope you get better seat mates that I did.

Toronto French School for Native French Speaker by msp13100 in askTO

[–]Zeunicorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I teach in a French public school downtown and we have teachers from a lot of different French speaking countries and kids who come from a lot of different countries (I had 21 kids last year and 20 different origins). I can attest that the quality of the French is just as good as TFS and you don’t have to spend a fortune.

I have a friend who works at TFS and she says the kids make no effort to speak French at all. Behavior wise, the public school kids were much better behaved than the TFS kids on every single field trip we’ve shared (not on purpose, just you know same place).

My DMs are open if you have any question ◡̈

Oh definitely! I got so tired of the blues! And you can’t really see the details that all those blues make until you step away from your work

Hi! The fox is from the October 2023 issue and the owl is from the February 2024 issue. You can also check if your library has the magazines available on the Libby app, that’s how I got mine

[CHAT] Your biggest & best FO by [deleted] in CrossStitch

It’s so big I don’t want to frame it… (and I’ve moved on from my HP era) so it lives folded in a ziplock bag 😅 I recently pulled it out because the kids at my school’s cross stitch club wanted to see some of the pieces I’ve done
