The Happy Woman

Is there such a thing as being too happy? That’s the question raised in Rose Cullis’ new play that explores what’s lurking behind a seemingly perfect family’s veneer.
Berkeley Street Theatre, 26 Berkeley Street, Downstairs, Theatre 416-368-3110. March 5-24.


The Small Room at the Top of the Stairs

Grace’s new husband has only one request: never enter the small room at the top of the stairs. Besides wanting to know what’s in that room, we’d also like to ask: was Grace aware of this little rule before their nuptials?
Tarragon Theatre, 30 Bridgman Ave., 416-531-1827. March 7 – April 8.


The Night of the Iguana

It may not be one of Tennessee Williams’ best known plays, but it still has all the sex, sins, and sweat that are prevalent in his other works. This one features a menagerie of characters at a resort in Mexico.
Hart House Theatre, 7 Hart House Circle, 416-978-8849. March 2-10.


Frances and Marybeth

We were lucky to catch the first of Neale Kimmel’s original play at last year’s New Ideas Festival and we’re looking forward to how this comedy of errors about two sisters, three suitors and a helluva lot of milk turns out.
Factory Theatre, Studio, 125 Bathurst Street, 416-504-9971. March 8-18.


Legally Blonde: The Musical

Based on the hit movie, the musical that took Broadway by storm in 2007 “bends and snaps” its way to the Lower Ossington Theatre and proves it’s more than just a pretty face.
Lower Ossington Theatre, 100A Ossington Avenue, 416-915-6747. March 9-31.
