If it works well, always make it a bit better seems to be the philosophy, as Theatre Orangeville’s An Affair of the Heart online shows welcome audiences. Running now until Feb. 25, this show is filled with songs of romance, Shakespeare’s lovers’ sonnets, a love story in dance and Debbie Collins making us laugh.
Nicolas Mustapha is on deck at the Grand piano, primarily as accompanist.
Derek Marshall opens the entertainment, elegant in his tux, a crooner for these times. He brings those smooth songs that never grow old, singing them the way they were meant to be sung. Echoes of Sinatra, Dean Martin – maybe Sammy Davis Jr. Romance is firmly in the air with Nice ‘N Easy [Does It]– “hold on to your horses” and take your time to enjoy.

What a terrific line-up there is for the next Theatre Orangeville Online show, opening February 12 and running until February 25.
By now, you might even know the drill. You can buy your virtual ticket online and watch the show any time over its two-week run. Such a lovely list of artists to celebrate Valentine’s, old love, new love or simply chase the doldrums and blues away.
Artistic Director, David Nairn said it: “Just want everyone to have a lovely time; share the show by Zoom with friends in other parts of the country and watch it at the same time – get family together. Even if you are alone, you still feel the warmth of what the show is.”
