Magnetic North: Measuring the Synthesis
If Mel Brook’s The Producers – currently running at the Arts Club – can be considered a form of theatre franchise then the productions included in this year’s Magnetic North should be thought of as hand-crafted, one of a kind items. Instead of following a master-plan delivered from New York, London or even Toronto, these are originals hewn from the raw material of the artists involved. They are unique, distilled experiences.
