For the third time:
The Fringe Festival in August..
We ended up seeing only one play, a hilarious one (I think titled "Roomies"; details tend to fade at my age) about two men and women and an apartment. It was slightly risque for my 17-year-old son but I'm only a mother and what do I know. He loved it.
There was also outdoor stage and street entertainment (those pesky mosquitoes at night), and we were going to go to a comedy club show. However, when we were in line someone was checking IDs and since you were supposed to be 18, we chickened out. It was too bad (despite probably more risque material) because Matt loves improv

The Francis Winspear Centre for Music opened its doors in September 1997. The Centre is the permanent home of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and several other music organizations. The Winspear Centre is a music performance hall, as opposed to a multi-purpose hall. It comprises an 1,800 seat main hall and a smaller rehearsal space, plus large public spaces. It is located on Sir Winston Churchill Square in the heart of the city, directly across the street from the Citadel Theatre (Canada's largest regional theatre facility).
