The Antipodes

Toronto theatre audiences adore American playwright Annie Baker, whose deceptively simple yet beautifully detailed plays like The Flick (for which she won a Pulitzer Prize in 2014), John and The Aliens have all received award-winning productions here. Now Coal Mine Theatre, who produced a haunting production of The Aliens in 2017, presents the Canadian premiere of Baker’s 2017 play The Antipodes. The show, directed by Ted Dykstra and starring Ari Cohen, Sarah Dodd, Colin A. Doyle, Kelsey Verzotti and others, explores the fundamental need for stories and storytelling – an appropriate theme for the small but mighty Coal Mine, whose absence has been felt these past two years.

April 3-May 15 at the Coal Mine Theatre (1454 Danforth). $35-$72.50. coalminetheatre.com

Pipeline

Toronto audiences haven’t had much access to the works of Dominique Morisseau, unless you count her book for the Temptations musical Ain’t Too Proud. That’s about to change as Soulpepper presents the Canadian premiere of her 2017 play about a single mother’s attempt to give her son a shot at a future she never had. The play takes on themes of race, education, class and privilege – all hot-button topics in this city. Soulpepper’s artistic director Weyni Mengesha helms a powerhouse cast that includes Akosua Amo-Adem, Tony Ofori, Mazin Elsadig, Kevin Hanchard, Kristen Thomson and Chelsea Russell. Note: the last time Elsadig starred in a Soulpepper show, his pal Drake showed up on opening night. Just sayin’.

April 7-May 8 at the Young Centre for the Performing Arts (50 Tank House). $25-$98. soulpepper.ca

Toronto Interior Design Show

Moving in this real estate market may not be an option for a lot of people. Instead, you could try scouting for some ideas to make your home feel new or to accommodate the ways our lifestyles have shifted in the pandemic. The show is running with a “new futures” theme and presenting ideas for co-living spaces, along with upcoming concepts and prototypes of furniture and wallpaper to make your home or home office feel like a Zen garden or a slick, quartz-lined productive space. 

April 7-10 at Metro Toronto Convention Centre South Building (222 Bremner). $19-$25.

A scene from Only You, which is one of the best things to do in Toronto in Spring 2022

Only You

Quebec’s Anne Plamondon has danced with some of the world’s most illustrious companies and choreographers, including Les Grandes Ballets Canadiens de Montréal, Nederlands Dans Theatre II, Crystal Pite’s Kidd Pivot and James Kudelka. She also helped develop the RUBBERBANDance Group and still teaches the company’s distinct movement. But for the past decade she’s also choreographed, and this much-anticipated piece – which she performs along with James Gregg – explores vulnerability, courage and strength. 

April 8-9 at the Fleck Dance Theatre (207 Queens Quay West). Pwyc $20-$95. harbourfrontcentre.com/torque

Celebrate 100: Maestros’ Special Homecoming

As part of its centenary, the Toronto Symphony Orchestra is presenting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see four of its previous music directors join its current maestro for an incredible night of music. Andrew Davis, Günter Herbig, Jukka-Pekka Saraste and Peter Oundjian join Gustavo Gimeno and host Marion Newman for a program of music by Berlioz, Delius, Wagner, Sibelius, Alexina -Louie, Smetana and Ravel, each piece highlighting key moments in the company’s history.

April 9 at 7:30 pm. Roy Thomson Hall (60 Simcoe). $29-$170. tso.ca

I AM HERE: Home Movies And Everyday Masterpieces

A new AGO exhibition connects the dots between cave paintings and TikTok, capturing the evolution of how humans would document their lives and express themselves – on walls or online. The exhibit, which also features home movies from the Prelinger Archives and artwork from Arthur Jafa, Annie Pootoogook and Mary Pratt, is a mosaic of photos, letters, recorded clips and even grocery lists capturing experiences through the ages. 

April 13-August 14 at the Art Gallery of Ontario (317 Dundas West). $25, free for members and guests under 25. ago.ca

KURIOS – Cabinet Of Curiosities

When Cirque du Soleil brought this show to town in 2014 to mark the company’s 30th anniversary, NOW wrote that it was one of their most consistent productions. Now the acclaimed show returns in all its spectacular glory – wait until you see the aquatic contortion act, or the mid-air cycling routine – at Ontario Place’s Big Top. 

April 14-July 17 at the Ontario Place Big Top (955 Lake Shore West). $80-$316. cirquedusoleil.com

Jake Epstein's Boy Who Falls From The Sky is one of the best things to do in Toronto in Spring 2022
Samuel Engelking

Boy Falls From The Sky

Way back in the summer of 2019, NOW put Jake Epstein on its Fringe Festival cover for his intimate cabaret show about being known as “that guy from Degrassi,” family car trips to Broadway and his desire to one day perform there himself (which he did, in shows like Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical). The show was one of the sold-out hits of the festival, and was promptly picked up by Mirvish for its next season. Then COVID-19 hit and theatre stopped. Now the show – written and performed by Epstein, directed by Robert McQueen – is back for a run at the Royal Alex. If you missed it, you need to see it; if you saw it before, you’ve probably already got your tickets.

April 19-May 29 at the Royal Alexandra Theatre (260 King West). $49-$129. mirvish.com

Broken Social Scene in summer 2019.
Tanja-Tiziana

Broken Social Scene at Massey Hall

Somehow, in their celebrated 20-year existence, Broken Social Scene have never played Massey Hall. That was still the case after the band’s December show was postponed, actually before the Omicron wave, for… reasons. Now with a new career-spanning B-sides and rarities collection, Old Dead Young, BSS is ready for their gala treatment. Ombiigizi, part of this year’s NOW Sound of Toronto class, will open night one and Georgia Harmer will open night two. 

April 20-21 at Massey Hall (178 Victoria). 8 pm. $51.05-$86.55. masseyhall.com

T.O. Food & Drink Fest

Toronto’s food scene is decidedly back, but if you missed out on it during the last two years you can catch up at this three-day fest. If you want to sample from food trucks, partake in chef workshops or mixology lessons, raise a glass of wine while listening to DJs – this is the place. 

April 22-24 at Metro Toronto Convention Centre (255 Front West). $18/day. tofoodanddrinkfest.com

TIFF Next Wave Festival

TIFF introduced free programming for the under-25 TikTok generation just in time for their youth-oriented festival. TIFF Next Wave kicks off with Nyla Innuksuk’s Slash/Back, a Goonies-style adventure about young girls jumping on their snowmobiles in Nunavut to take on an alien invasion (colonial metaphors in tow). If kids’ stuff ain’t your tempo, maybe check out TIFF’s REVOLUTION! in Cinema program beginning April 9 with Dziga Vertov’s agitprop doc The History Of The Civil War and featuring a 4K restoration of Mikhail Kalatozov’s I Am Cuba on April 15. 

April 22-24 at TIFF Bell Lightbox (350 King West). $10-$14. tiff.net

La Traviata

It’s fitting that this production of Verdi’s masterpiece marks the first in-person opera performance staged by the Canadian Opera Company in its downtown opera house since the beginning of the pandemic. With its lavish party scenes, eye-candy sets and costumes and string of familiar melodies (Julia Roberts wept to them in Pretty Woman), it’s the perfect production to return to. The COC’s music director Johannes Debus conducts, with Arin Arbus directing a cast that includes Amina Edris, Matthew Polenzani and Simone Piazzola, with company faves Gregory Dahl, Jamie Groote and Midori Marsh also appearing. 

April 23-May 20 at the Four Seasons Centre (145 Queen West). $22-$350. coc.ca

Hot Docs Film Festival

North America’s largest documentary festival is back in pandemic-friendly hybrid form, hosting both live and online options. Highlights among this year’s selection include Miryam Charles’s gutting exploration of place and memory, This House; Chase Joynt’s Framing Agnes, which uses a playful talk show format to discuss a young woman who was the subject in the first substantial study on transgender identity in 1958; Ramin Bahrani’s dissection of American gun culture in 2nd Chance; and Shalini Kantayya’s look at what’s really going on with the platform that is holding the youth’s attention, TikTok, Boom. 

April 28-May 8 at various locations. hotdocs.ca

Women From Space

After an interesting diversion as an at-home hologram event last year, this inclusive festival devoted to experimental music (however you define that) is back. Headliners include Canadian treasure Sook-Yin Lee, disco groovers Tush, Inuit throat singers -PIQSIQ, some one-off jazzy collaborations and a lot more. 

April 28-May 1 at the Tranzac (292 Brunswick) and 918 Bathurst. Festival pass $40-$50. womenfromspace.com

Olivia Rodrigo at Massey Hall

Olivia Rodrigo’s emotional and sometimes blistering breakup anthems have turned her into the relatable favourite of people just getting their driver’s licences and those considerably older. Expect a good contingent of both at these two Massey Hall shows. If you can’t get tickets (and Good 4 U if you did), we expect she’ll probably be back at Scotiabank Arena soon enough. 

April 29-30 at Massey Hall (178 Victoria). 8 pm. Sold out. ticketmaster.ca

Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival

Multidisciplinary Canadian artists like Vivek Shraya and Oluseye and international names like Ethiopian photographer Aïda Muluneh are among those displaying striking photos at CONTACT’s 26th edition. Works at the festival, which will be on display across the city at spots like Evergreen Brickworks and the Bentway, will reflect climate change and its impact on humanity, and vice versa, along with colonialism, systemic racism, Black culture and identity, and perspectives on land, borders and histories. 

May 1-31 at various locations. Free. scotiabankcontactphoto.com

Action Bronson & Earl Sweatshirt at History

The new marquee venue in the east end got only a brief window after opening before going into lockdown, but now it’s fully back and hosting some big shows. If you haven’t been there yet and you’re into hip-hop, this is a good place to start. Action Bronson, despite some local controversy at NXNE some years back, still has a big fanbase here. But the gem here is the second-billed Earl Sweatshirt, whose experimental yet still popular abstract rhymes are begging for a live performance. 

May 9 at History (1663 Queen East). 7 pm. Tickets from $55. ticketmaster.ca

The Junos

The Juno Awards were technically in Toronto for their 50th anniversary last year, but it was a virtual ceremony at multiple venues, with no one in attendance. This year, we get a do-over. The Canadian music awards show will take place outside for the first time, will be open to the ticket-buying public, and there will be a whole week of yet-to-be-announced shows and events under the Juno Week banner. They’re billing it as the start to the summer concert season, which thankfully will happen this year. 

May 15 at Budweiser Stage (909 Lake Shore West). 8 pm. Tickets from $39.95. ticketmaster.ca, junoawards.ca

AToronto Biennel is one of the things to do this Spring 2022 in Toronto
Nick Lachance

Toronto Biennial of Art

Syrus Marcus Ware, Ravyn Wngz and Judy Chicago are among the 40 or so contributors to the second Toronto Biennial. The event spreads across the city at site-specific locations but many works are at 72 Perth in the Junction and the Small Arms Inspection Building in Mississauga, and offers a mix of art, performances, workshops and interactive shows. The program was curated with themes that emerged during the three-year gap since its first edition in mind, like collectivity, listening and unlearning.

Until June 5 at various locations around the city. Free. torontobiennial.org

Myseum Intersections Festival

After two years of mostly digital programming, this boundary-pushing art festival exploring intersectional perspectives on Toronto and its people is back in-person. There are projects about COVID-19 and health in the prison system, a cultural history of Etobicoke, an exploration of lesser-known narratives of older radical Black women and more. 

Until April 30. Various venues around the city. Free. myseumoftoronto.com

A work by Swapnaa Tamhane at the ROM, is one of the things to do this Spring 2022 in Toronto

Swapnaa Tamhane: Mobile Palace

Montreal-based Swapnaa Tamhane’s textile art, which is about de-stabilizing colonial constructs, is coming to the Royal Ontario Museum for her first solo museum show. Tamhane works with artisan-designers in Gujarat, India, embroidering flowing fabrics that are on display in tent-like formations. There’s history in these sheets. And visitors to the ROM are invited to move between them (without touching!), and consider the legacy of the cotton and its role in Indian culture and resistance. 

Until August 1 at Royal Ontario Museum (100 Queen’s Park). $13-$23, free for members. rom.on.ca
