| - When I worked at Canadian Stage (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/the-canadian-stage-company-toronto), part of my job was going to see theatre, and specifically, plays in our theatre. This way, when people ask us about the show, we would be able to tell them how good it was, how painful it was, or how it compared to other theatre in the city. Not a bad job to have. Whenever Canadian Stage put anything on the big stage, they did so in the St. Lawrence Centre (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/st-lawrence-centre-for-the-arts-toronto), at the Bluma Appel theatre, the largest of the two theatres in the St. Lawrence Centre.
With a large main floor, large balcony, and boxes available, the Bluma Appel theatre is a great venue with acoustics to match. Musicals and dramas alike are performed here in a great facility. Regardless whether the show is great or crap, at least they're playing on a decent stage. With no obstructions or posts to hinder the view, the crowd is able to see and hear everything that goes on the stage. That may be a good thing or a bad thing depending upon the show, obviously. Just know that when you get tickets for the Bluma Appel theatre, you'll be able to blame a post for the reason you did and enjoy the show.
