What To Do In Vancouver
Last week we were up in Whistler and this week has started out way slower as I’m home trying to get over a nasty cold. However I’m hoping I’m on the mend as there’s lots to do including the opening of Miss Bennet at The Arts Club, The Aurora Winter Festival, Brunch Comedy, and The Italian Christmas Market.
Until Dec 30 Miss Benett: Christmas at Pemberly Arts Club Theatre
A holiday confection filled with classic Jane Austen charm, Miss Bennetis a modern sequel about the bookish middle child of the Bennets. While Mary starts to dream of a new life beyond her boisterous family, an unexpected visitor at the Darcy household could spell romance. You’ll revel in this sparkling comic play that’s full of seasonal felicity. TICKETS
