Just can't get excited about their safe, repetative line up... Tired actors doing the same set list year after year... how look another 2nd rate Norm Foster romantic comedy... or the singing post-mistress... painful... at its best with a travelling show, imported director and artistic manager...

The play was excellent. The house was only about a third full, which was good for a very rainy, cool Tuesday night. The two actresses were able to change gender, age and nationality to fill out the many roles, but it was always easy to follow.The theatre itself was really comfortable.

My husband and I saw A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline tonight at the Magnus Theater. The music was great, the singer was wonderful. This small theater is something Thunder Bay should be very proud to support.

We were in town for a couple of days and caught a performance. The set was really nice, the acting was great, and the facility is very nice. Our seats were very good and we were near the back. We really enjoyed the experience.

If you get a chance to see a show while visiting in Thunder Bay you won't be disappointed in the calibre of offerings at Magnus Theatre. Artistic director, Mario Crudo, brings in talent from all over Canada and throughout North America each season. The theatre is dark on Sunday, but offers a Wednesday and Saturday matinee. Very reasonably priced.

Wonder productions by professionals in a theater that is obviously the pride and joy of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Story themes reflect the local and first nation history and cultures. Well worth the time, and an easy walk from downtown Thunder Bay [North].
