Sarah Chan never wants to own a car. Steadiest on her own two feet, it is her preferred method of travel to explore the streets of the city where she lives and works. She grew up as a tomboy, listening to 680 News and with a mother who could not cook. Via strange magic, she is now hardly ever found wearing pants (opting for dresses and skirts, not public indecency), lives for the performing arts and is eating – always eating.
Sarah often takes her walking talents, her love of street style, art galleries, opera and her insatiable appetite around the world. A constant sufferer of cabin fever and wanderlust, for which the only cure is hopping on board an airplane. Sarah is very particular with customs agents around the world where they are allowed to stamp her passport.
Favourite place in TO: A moment of rare silence at the crosswalk at Wellington and Spadina.
Shakespeare in High Park features a double bill of Hamlet and All’s Well that Ends Well this summer with a talented cast doing double duty that makes me think, “That’s a lot of lines to learn.”
It’s summer time and that means that one of our great summer traditions is back: Shakespeare in High Park. The park is an absolutely beautiful place to be, and the opportunity to experience quality Pay-What-You-Can prices for theatre is always a bonus.
