Production Ottawa: If it's happening, we're talking about it.
Production Ottawa provides the most in depth movie and theatre coverage on Ottawa's production scene. If it's happening, we're talking about it.
For people who spend six months of the year oppressed by snow, it’s no wonder that most Ottawans look forward to summer breezes, beer on the patio and barbecues. And although in the heat of the day, the cool air conditioning of a traditional theatre venue certainly appeals, there’s no reason why, as the sun sets, we can’t pull up a chair or a blanket and a cool drink and relax in the great outdoors instead. Find out about five can’t miss shows!
With all the coverage we’ve been doing for Fringe, this is where we make it easy to find what you’re looking for. Here are links to our 81 reviews for 49 shows plus 11 daily recaps and a whole mess of video.
So it comes to pass that all things end. And in the ending of the thing, how was it? Find out what we thought were the standout shows, performers and moments in our final Life at Fringe vlog and Fringe 2012 recap.

Howard Petrick was drafted to serve in a war he didn’t believe in (Vietnam) but didn’t want to break any laws. This left both him and the military in a hard place. In Breaking Rank, Howard Petrick himself tells you the story by taking on a myriad of different characters he encountered during his time in the army. Should you see it?
Bremner Duthie’s one-man show is set during the depression at a time when vaudeville theatre is being pushed out to make way for cinema. Should you see it?
With less than a month before Fringe 2012, Warrior Food tossed their original show concept and started from scratch to put together a show dealing with things that happen in women’s lives. Should you see it?
Andrew Chapman’s show What Happens Now is an hour-long stand-up comedy act, largely built around an Ottawa theme. Should you see it?
