What’s Up In And Around Vancouver This Week
I’m just a week away from a big fundraiser I’ve been working on for Little Mountain Neighbourhood House, plus we are just days away from BC Greenhouse Veggie Days, and both projects are taking up just a wee bit of my time so I’ve had to let my own social media and blog take a second seat for a bit. I’ve got a bit of time today between all the planning, before I head off to the Where Magazine Awards, Canadian Produce Marketing Trade Show, a visit to the Arbutus Greenway Open House and then run a Vancouver Food Tour, so I’d thought I’d throw a weekly picks update out at y’all. Yes I do like a busy life! Here’s what else is up this coming week/weekend that we’d recommend.

Murder on the Improv Express – A Killer Comedy
An evening of mirth, murder and mayhem at Murder on the Improv Express – A Killer Comedy. Picture this – a luxury train trapped in the Canadian Rockies with a passenger list that includes the famous French-Canadian detective Henri Poirot, and oh yes, there’s a corpse. What you have are the makings of a classic murder mystery.
Who is the victim, who is the killer and how the dastardly deed was done. These are just some of the things that will be established by your suggestions during the course of the show.
Want to know more? You’ll have to go and see for yourself. There’re no spoilers to tell as no two shows can ever be the same.
