      Antartica, a musical comedy, is a splendid production. Although the performance is short, less than an hour and a half - no intermission, the plot is quite involved but not hard to follow. The audience are passengers on a cruise ship sailing the waters of the far, far south, Edward Shackleton's waters of Antartica. On board the ship, in additon to the captain, the entertainment director, the evil scientist couple, and a real estate agent (I mean Real Estate Agent), is the great, great nephew of the famous Shackleton, Max Shackleton. The plot is fun and the characters are caricatures. The show is loaded with songs and dance numbers, all of which are cute and catchy. There were several children in the audience opening night and they appeared to enjoy the show as much as the adults did. The cast and crew all did fabulous jobs. I really enjoyed the performance and left City Theatre with a smile and a few goofy songs in my head. I have recommended this show to several friends. Collapse

      I knew the basic storyline of the real Ernest Shackleton, so I never dreamed anyone would turn it into a musical comedy. But then again, we thought the same of Les Miserables. It just goes to prove that with live theatre, there are no limits… This show has no limits either. The content of the script and the talent of the cast and crew take no prisoners. They all worked together seamlessly to pull off one of the whackiest story lines ever. This is a play within a play. The characters have seemingly hopeless dreams, and no matter what happens to them, they will stop at nothing to see their dreams realized. We should all be so brave. Good theatre is bold, brave and fearless. This is what it takes to make great entertainment. Collapse

      "Very funny"

      Insomnia was a very funny, entertaining show. It only takes about an hour and it was a good addition to our night out.
