Attention: Joshua Chong, Theatre Critic
by Rain Geiger on 2024-07-24Rating: 5 out of 5C'mon, Josh, lighten up. This show may be a big ad for Tims but who cares when the audience just loved it? We laughed at all the Tim Hortons references. We EXPECTED them! And we were treated to some terrific and well-known actors: Sarah Farb, Chilina Kennedy, Peter Millard, Jake Epstein, Kimberley-Anne Truong. And the whole production under the guidance of Michael Rubinoff. (Think "Come From Away") Most of the songs were tuneful and well sung, credit going to Britta and Anika Johnson. The story by Nick Green evoked warm feelings. The cast pulled off some complicated non-dance choreography - again, delightful. The entire show was Canadian to the core and we ate it up. Joshua, not every Broadway show deserves a Tony, but not every Tony winner is even memorable. The Last Timbit is. I hope they mount it again so more Canadians can enjoy the Timbit.
