Modest in concept but rich in imagination, it’s the don’t-miss performance of the month.

Toronto Life

AtG's La bohème is just as likely to make you laugh as it is to make you cry.

Schmopera

The production’s accessibility to Toronto audiences is unmissable, with references to familiar locations like Future’s Bakery and William Lyon MacKenzie on the Canadian currency.

Musical Toronto

With this production, they now stand as one of the most creative theatrical and musical groups in the country.

The Globe and Mail

It's intelligent, funny and very millennial... Topher Mokrzewski seems to play more notes on the piano than two hands have ever played — his orchestral reduction is lush.

Broadway World

A raucous, energetic, site-specific version of La Bohème, performed in an Annex club and featuring characters who are completely true to the spirit of Puccini’s original while also commenting on contemporary issues like soaring rents, hookup culture and millennial underemployment.
