The Windsor Spitfires start Round 3 of the playoffs against the Kitchner Rangers on Friday night! My apologies to the Tecumseh United Women. I missed your first match in last weeks newsletter. Congrats on the 2-1 win!
On My Radar: The Shark is Broken sounds like a fun play. The Bookstore Crawl is right up my alley (I love physical books). The glass art class also looks interesting. An evening with Dr. David Suzuki!

The Shark is Broken at Kordazone Theatre
Date: Thursday, April 23 – Saturday, April 25
Time: 8:00 pm
Location: Kordazone Theatre
Summary: FADE IN: The open ocean, 1974. Filming is delayed… again. The lead actors – theatre veteran Robert Shaw and young Hollywood hotshots Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider – are crammed into a too-small boat, entirely at the mercy of foul weather and a faulty mechanical co-star. Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic… if it doesn’t sink them all. Step aboard the Orca and into THE SHARK IS BROKEN, a “profound dive behind the scenes of the making of JAWS” (The Daily Telegraph, ★★★★). This Olivier Award-nominated new play is “hilariously brilliant and pure genius”raves the Sunday Express (★★★★★). THE SHARK IS BROKEN celebrates movie history and peeks at the choppy waters behind Hollywood’s first blockbuster. Short tempers. Short circuits. The script’s co-writer, Ian Shaw, is the son of JAWS star Robert Shaw. THE SHARK IS BROKEN was selected as part of Korda’s second public call for production proposals and will be directed by frequent Korda collaborator Rachel Hillis.
