[Toronto] Leave Nothing Behind: A Community Conversation on Positive Spaces for LGBTQ Newcomers
On Friday, February 12th, 2010, The Ontario Council of Agencies Serving Immigrants, in collaboration with the Among Friends Project, invites you to take part in a one day community conversation on Positive Spaces for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) newcomers. This full day event will be held at the Ramada Plaza, located at 300 Jarvis Street in Toronto and encourages settlement service providers, LGBTQ newcomers and those interested in building their knowledge base on this topic to attend.

The day will facilitate the creation of new networks, will provide opportunities to continue dialogue on creating and maintaining Positive Spaces and will bring together both service providers and newcomers to continue building community. This one day “conversation” will include speakers, performances, discussion and opportunities to re-establish the needed momentum to continue creating Positive Spaces for LGBTQ newcomers throughout Ontario.

Your facilitators are Jody Raven & Melissa Gordon. co-founders and facilitators of the Sacred Path Centre. Both Jody and Melissa are students of spirituality and weave the magic of nature & ceremony into their work.

Sondheim's Sweeney Todd
At last, a Songheim Musical is coming to Kingston...

The recent Tim Burton movie starred Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter as the partners in gore. Adam Eliot and Hannah Smith lend their gifted voices to the merchants of mayhem. Anton Kaduck is a revelation as the hanging judge. Megan Ready-Walters and her sweet soprano voice makes her the perfect ingenue. The Gothic church that is The Wellington Street Theatre is the perfect environment for Fleet Street and its sordid neighbourhood. Adam Eliot's Sweeney Todd arrives back in England after being unjustly sentenced for crimes he did not commit. All he ever loved has been taken from him and he is looking for revenge. He falls in with Hannah Smith's Mrs. Lovett, and between them they go on a murderous spree, which ultimately consumes them in the fires of hate.

Sweeney Todd has been regarded for years more as urban legend than actual real-life flesh and bones. Cheap sordid novels in the early eighteen hundreds chilled and thrilled English readers. Sweeney Todd was the Freddy Kruger, the zombie horde, the vampire of his time. Some evidence exists to suggest that Mister Todd did himself exist. Sondheim and Wheeler have given Sweeney more noble cause for what he is driven to do, more noble than the avarice and greed accorded him by earlier writers, but in the end the result is the same.

Sondheim's brilliant, complicated music and Hugh Wheeler's clever script are complicit in providing a great night's entertainment.
