Hi! I'm sending this to all the "WonderDads" (formerly "KinderDads”) and other parents of Max's friends at L'Ecole Bilingue... hope you don't mind being on my mailing list for occasional messages, and let me know if you do, I'll take you off!

Anyway, I wanted to let everyone know that I'm appearing in a new musical / play about the Sylvia Hotel, from November 8 to 12! 

"Two Views from the Sylvia" is two one-act plays. The first tells the story of the Goldstein family - the father, Abraham, built the Sylvia Hotel in 1912 and named it after his daughter. There were struggles and prejudices that both of them had to overcome. Also featured is Vancouver legend Joe Fortes, who taught Sylvia to swim and, like the Goldstein family, had to contend with his own "outsider" status. The second-act play covers the years since then and some memorable tales that took place at the Sylvia. I feature in the first act, playing Abraham Goldstein, as well as a brief appearance in Act 2 as the hotel manager.

Full details (and of course tickets) can be found at sylviamusical.com . 

It's shaping up to be a great and really fun show - I hope you can make it!

Thanks,
Adam
