Drama Club: Pride Edition

Jaded queers will complain that Pride has become little more than a SKYY Vodka ad come to life, a commercial, de-politicized faux-hedonistic throw-back that gives people an excuse to have sex with strangers and pretend they're still teenagers. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But for those of you who are over the parade and think Church Street is a snore, but still want to celebrate Pride, there are a few cool events, hidden away in the festival's abysmal website. And yes, Drama Clubbers, there is theatre to see!

For years, SummerWorks has been kid sister to the Fringe. Smaller, shier, not quite as well-known (if often more reliable thanks to its policy of juried play selection as opposed to Fringe's random lottery). But there comes a summer in every kid sister's life when she starts going through some "special changes" and suddenly all her older sibling's friends turn their heads when she walks by the pool in her tankini. We already started to discuss the direction in which new Artistic Producer Michael Rubenfeld has started to take the festival, which has now been re-branded as "Toronto's Indie Theatre and Arts Festival."
