In Patricia Rozema’s (When Night is Falling, Mansfield Park) fanciful first feature, waifish aspiring photographer Polly lands a job at a Toronto art gallery run by Gabrielle, who is also a painter. Polly is impressed with Gabrielle’s paintings, but as Polly gets to know her lover Mary and becomes entangled in their lives, she realizes Gabrielle isn’t exactly who she appears to be.
The gauche absent-minded temp with spiky orange hair and the polished, bourgeois curator with a gift for gab are like night and day, yet a strong connection builds between these two women through their shared love of art, and their genuine curiosity and appetite for love.
Location: CarbonArcCinema, 1747 Summer St (Museum of Natural History, entry via southern parking lot)
9:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.
Hair Battle: Pee VS. Poo
Shmommy & Vinny have long been teasing Hair Battle: Pee Vs. Poo night for years, but the time has officially COME💦. Catch fabulous lip sync battles as Team Pee faces off against Team Poo in this fierce battle for the golden toilet seat.
If you are thinking, "Shmommy and Vinny, I am so confused. What does Pee vs Poo night entail?" Well, it will be a night filled with potty humour, with Shmommy sharing her worst (and best) poo and pee stories, as well as lip syncs to songs that could be interpreted as songs about peeing or pooping (think Push It by Corbin Bleu, Waterfalls by TLC)
Dark Rumours is a floor filling post-punk dance party. It has been Halifax’s go-to for fans of darkwave, EBM, industrial, goth, synthpop, and dark disco. The evening is an eclectic mix of post punk tracks, 1980s - 2020s, cult hits and deep cuts.
Costume isn’t required, but it’s definitely a night to get dressed to the 666’s.
