The ensemble of Chloe Bryans, (Arlo) Kyla Murr and Lainey Reynolds were essential and excellent!

On to the innovative and creative production team, bravo, five stars and the biggest pizza party for Edward Gloade (Director), Kaitlyn Bishop (Producer), Marleigh White (Creative Director), Colby Reynolds (Stage Manager), Abby Gloade (Technical Director), Leah Morrow (Prop Master), Madison Spieran and Kohl Galway (Art Team), Meishka Layman-Gilbert, Oliver Lee, Kallum Vallee, Makenna Leitch, Darwyn Dashawetz (Tech Crew) and Choley Bryans, Avery Monrad, Lainey Reynolds and (Arlo) Kyla Muur (Backstage Crew). Keep an eye on this group of talented theatre folks and what they create, together and individually, in the future because, guaranteed, it will be resplendent. Sunday May 5th was another day of celebration: Cinco de Mayo!

Cinco de Mayo is a day of revelry, of victory and freedom for the people of Mexico and La Trenzo Tacos in the Wincey Mills was celebrating with food, Sip & Shop and fiesta style fun! I went with my

Mom and we started the party with a margarita from the Paris Beer Co pop up bar They had traditional and mango on offer; I went for traditional and the lovely bartender, Meg, made my Mom a very dry, custom marg’ concoction, both topped with burnt lime. Cheers Meg, they were delicious! Then we grabbed a bunch of tacos to share with a friend and we had mini feast; I tried the Conchinita: Yucatan style marinated pork shoulder and the Tinga de Pollo, a tomato chipotle chicken plus we tried three different sauces, three levels of spice: salsa verde, salsa roja and a habanero dip My mouth was full of flavour and on fire in the most enjoyable way, it was a spicy and sweet way to finish a very busy and beautiful weekend in Paris.

But don’t take my word for it. Keep your eyes peeled on the community calendar events and get out and celebrate everything this community has to offer!

Rubyyy Jones: I ended up at the Paris District High School production of She Kills Monsters presented by the drama club, and it was - without any exaggeration beyond my usual dash of dramathe best theatre I have seen since I moved back to Canada! (pictured above). And My mouth was full of flavour and on fire in the most enjoyable way during a Cinco de Mayo tasty treat offered up by La Trenza Tacos in the Wincey Mills, Paris.
