The new ballet by Boris Eifman was inspired by the dark life and art of famed French sculptor Auguste Rodin. Rodin weaves the tale of Auguste Rodin and his tumultuous, tragic life, with Camille Claudel, his muse and mistress. Eifman’s Rodin is pure dance and storytelling magic from start to end. The entire performance is highly accessible to the audience, with instantly familiar and highly enjoyable music by Ravel, Saint-Saëns and Massenet. As noted in the program, with Rodin, Eifman created a contemporary performance where dance and sculpture come together to find an unprecedented camaraderie in a modern ballet of love, lust and jealousy. For 15 years, Rodin and Claudel had been one sensual and creative body. A painful break-up shattered their personal and artistic relationship and Claudel’s mental state. She declined into paranoia and lived out the rest of her life, isolated and forgotten for 30 years, in an asylum. The angst that the original Rodin and Claudel must have felt was displayed succinctly on stage through dance, staging, direction, lighting and score. Everything comes together perfectly to [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/en-pointe-eifman-ballet-st-petersburgs-rodin/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Enjoy the Toronto harbour aboard a Mariposa cruise ship</title><link>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/enjoy-the-toronto-harbour-aboard-a-mariposa-cruise-ship/</link> <comments>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/enjoy-the-toronto-harbour-aboard-a-mariposa-cruise-ship/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 25 May 2013 18:36:41 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Editor</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Family]]></category> <category><![CDATA[In the City]]></category> <category><![CDATA[city]]></category> <category><![CDATA[events]]></category> <category><![CDATA[food]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Harbourfront]]></category> <category><![CDATA[in the city]]></category> <category><![CDATA[neighbourhood]]></category> <guid

The potential was there and there were certainly some beautiful moments but overall, everything was pushed and lacking truthfulness. Written by Amy Lee Lavoie, Stopheart is a look at five unusual people living in the small town of South Porcupine, Ontario. The story centers on Elian Fink (Amitai Marmorstein). He has a lot to contend with. His mother Goldie (Elizabeth Saunders) is dying of a heart condition and his goofy father Cricket (Martin Julien) has built the world’s tackiest coffin, which sits in their living room. It is pimped out with an explosion of lace, stenciled flowerpots and neon lights that flash love, love, love. His parents morbidly practice Goldie’s funeral over and over again. Elian struggles with his sexuality while working at his dead end job at the local grocery store Freshiemart. He has one friend July (Vivien Endicott-Douglas), a chubby, abandoned misfit who is desperately trying to find love. She seems to want Elian as her boyfriend even though she knows he is gay. July’s ex-con brother, Bear (Garret C. Smith) shows up and Elian falls madly in love with this hunky man who is nothing but trouble.

One is excited to see the final production of the Spring 2013 season, but to know one has to wait until the Fall to experience it again feels a little wrong. The Canadian Opera Company caps off its 2012/2013 season with Dialogues des Carmelites. A relative newcomer, (I consider it young if it’s younger than my mother) Poulenc’s Carmelites was first staged in Milan in 1957. The story is set during the French Revolution; Blanche, a young woman afraid of the uncertainty of the times, joins the Carmelite order to find solace and peace. Unfortunately peace is not what she finds amidst the cloistered walls, as Blanche witnesses the unsettling death of the old Prioress who foreshadows further turmoil. Certainly, as the revolutionists disband the convent and the nuns are tested, it is easy to predict that there is no upturn for these women. The dark and heavy undertone of the entire production is underscored by the three best elements: the orchestra, the lighting and the use of the chorus. Poulenc’s score is haunting and has all the right nuances for anyone who might [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/for-the-love-of-opera-dialogues-des-carmelites/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>How to make your bedroom stylish and eco-friendly at the same time</title><link>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/how-to-make-your-bedroom-stylish-and-eco-friendly-at-the-same-time/</link> <comments>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/how-to-make-your-bedroom-stylish-and-eco-friendly-at-the-same-time/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 16 May 2013 01:42:13 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Letters to the Editor</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Health & Wellness]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Life]]></category> <category><![CDATA[design]]></category> <category><![CDATA[house & home]]></category> <category><![CDATA[style]]></category> <guid

Finding ways to be eco-friendly, on a day-by-day basis, include becoming environmentally and eco-friendly. Improving home air quality and reducing allergens and harmful gas vapors is a major concern for many people and taking steps to make the home more eco-friendly addresses these issues. A third of an individual’s life is spent sleeping, so the bedroom is the obvious place to start when making a home “greener”. Employing energy-efficient design and using eco-friendly materials and fibers are the best way to make a bedroom healthier and more earth-friendly. Energy-efficient designs for the bedroom While the bedroom is being remodeled insulation can be added to the ceiling and walls of the room. Insulation not only keeps the heat in during the cold weather and keeps the heat out during hot weather; it will also act as an acoustic barrier, making the room a quieter, more peaceful place for sleeping and relaxing in.  Adequate lighting and saving on electricity use may seem to be at odds with each other, but actually there are many environmentally friendly ways to save on energy while [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/how-to-make-your-bedroom-stylish-and-eco-friendly-at-the-same-time/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Scene &amp; Heard: Las Vegas inTO style</title><link>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/scene-heard-las-vegas-into-style/</link> <comments>http://thesceneinto.com/2013/05/scene-heard-las-vegas-into-style/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 14 May 2013 03:21:56 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Rene Samulewitsch</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[In the City]]></category> <category><![CDATA[in the city]]></category> <guid
