Turn Me On, Dammit!, Throne of Games, Powerglove and Protomen and what to do in Toronto on Wednesday

Today, the Community Development and Recreation Committee is discussing the facility’s future and OCAP, the Downtown East Committee to Stop the Cuts and others are lobbying to keep this life-saving service open. 9:30 a.m. Free. City Hall. Free pancake breakfast served from 8:30 am. ocap.ca

Movies

Turn Me On, Dammit! Jannicke Systad Jacobsen’s refreshing, exploitation-free movie looks at a sex-obsessed 15-year-old Norwegian girl (Helene Bergsholm). See review.

Stage

Throne Of Games Colin Munch, Paul Bates, Aurora Browne and others take part in this improvised show based on the popular fantasy TV series. At the Comedy Bar. See listing.

Music

Protomen and Powerglov Both Powerglove and Protomen make rock music inspired by video games and do covers of theme music from old games, so it makes sense that the oddball acts are touring together. They hit the Hoxton tonight. See listing.

Art

Jens Hoffman As part of the International Lecture Series, the director of San Francisco’s CCA Wattis Institute for Contemporary Art gives a talk called Biennials And Curatorial Ambivalence, on de-skilling in the field of exhibition-making and standards in curatorial practice.
