      2010., iUniverse Call No: QWF 971.4 G618d    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: It was 1933 in the midst of the Great Depression. Montrealers, like their counterparts in other countries, were inundated with financial burdens. Dance lessons, music lessons, drama lessons were considered in many quarters as "frills." This pervasive mood did not daunt two young women, Dorothy Davis and Violet Walters, from initiating their mission. Difficult times, they believed, were all the more reason to inspire children through the love of the arts, in this case drama and theatre. Muriel Gold tells teh story of these two dynamic women through innumerable anecdotes, often hilarious, sometimes moving, but always a compelling and fascinating read. A former student and teacher at teh School, she recreates the magic of past Children's Theatre productions, cities thh monologues, the poems, the voice exercises vividly recalled by the children they nurtured over a period of close to to 60 years.

      2022., Playwrights Canada Press Call No: NEW QWF 812.6 D546s   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: After the unexpected death of their parents, two second-generation Italian Canadian brothers must come together to decide whether to hold on to the family home, which is full of secrets and hoarded junk, or save what's left of their strained relationship. When Anthony, an uptight lawyer running for office, arrives with his former actor-turned-campaign-manager wife Cristina, they're set on signing away the house and everything that comes with it. But Enzo, a disorganized plumber, and his pregnant girlfriend Nat have other plans. The pleasantries quickly turn to tense deliberations that unearth dramatically differing views of the group's past experiences and present values. This clever family dramedy takes a close look at issues that affect modern second-generation immigrant families in Canada--class differences, antiquated old-world beliefs, and a crumbling Canadian dream.
