About the Show:

The spectacular musical adaptation of Fellini's 8½ features one man and the dozens of women in his life. Celebrated but impetuous film director Guido Contini, succumbing to the pressures of filming his latest film epic, suffers a midlife crisis. One by one, women from his past and present – including his mother, his wife, his mistress, and his leading lady – haunt, instruct, scold, seduce and encourage him until he finally learns to grow up.

Jay's Wing, directed by Snizhana Gukasian-Korobeinikova was put up at the West Village Theatre March 28th and 29th of 2026. Kyle sat down after the show had closed to talk with directed and performer Snizhana about how the production went, what it meant, and how Ukrainian Theatre differs from Canadian Theatre and what lessons we can take away from this bridging of cultures.

About the Show:

Adapted from the original Ukrainian text by Ivan Franko, Massino, a 40-year-old man, spends New Year’s Eve in solitude. He reflects on his aesthetic, reclusive life until he receives a letter from his forgotten love, which forces him to reconsider his views on the future. The love story of Maria and Massino was written 120 years ago. We took one of the most poetic prose works of Ukrainian literature and translated it into the language of theatre.

Opening the 28th through the 31st of May at the Spanic Arts, Flying Tree Theatre presents two original works - Where is Home and Next Door by Julie-Anne Bolduc. Kyle sits down with the two creators of Flying Tree Theatre, Julie-Anne and Arash Minhas to discuss what these works are about, what Flying Tree Theatre is all about, and what these sorts of works mean for first generation Canadians.
