Thanks for a great year!

A Message from Larry Beckwith - Artistic Director

Dear Friends,

Our sixth complete season of multi-disciplinary stage works from across the ages culminated in the middle of May with a bilingual Moliere extravaganza, featuring music, dancing, poetry, commedia dell'arte and much more! It was our most ambitious project to date and we had a wonderful time putting it together. I want to take this opportunity to thank our donors, audiences, friends and supporters for making 2009-2010 another banner year for TMT. Bringing together music, dance and theatre in unique and special ways continues to be a fascination for me and I look forward to continuing to learn about the masque, a fascinating art form with endless possibilities.

I extend to all the TMT "family" best wishes for a great summer and look forward to welcoming you to future TMT events soon. If you are in town on August 22, 2010, please join us at the Music Garden at the foot of Spadina Avenue for a program featuring singer/dancer Dorothea Ventura and our artistic associate Derek Boyes.

All the best,

Larry

Thanks to our sponsors

Thanks also to Roger Moore, and our many other generous donors.
