Tonight at the Drake Hotel (1150 Queen Street West, two blocks east of Dufferin) my friend Diana Galligan will be performing a one-woman comedic play she wrote called Viva Vivi! Here’s her synopsis:

It’s 1928. Meet Vivi Vitaly – a silent
film star with big problems. A runaway husband, a mountain of debt and
one shot to turn her life around. A comic look at changing with the
times.

The show starts at 9:30. I’ll be there a little beforehand to mingle
with the crowd, enjoy a pint of the darkest beer they have on tap, say
hello to my fellow members of the Thirsty People of Toronto and make sure I get a good seat.
