Dates and Venue 17 - 21 August, 2010 | Havana Theatre, Commercial Drive Reviewer Melanie Ewan With sixty seats, the Havana Theatre is quite small, which provides an intimate setting for a magic show. We decided to sit in the front row, while secretly hoping that we would not be picked as volunteers for any trick. From the first moment that Beckman appeared he had a smile on his face, clearly enjoying every moment of his work. And why shouldn’t he? Full review

and Venue 22 July - 5 September, 2010 | Grand Chapiteau
at Concord Pacific Place, Vancouver
Reviewer John Jane Cirque du Soleil's newest show Kooza, which recently blew into town and set up its Grand Chapiteau on Concord Pacific Place, may actually please both camps. Designed in the mode of the classical circus, its large circular stage is roughly the same shape and size of the traditional ring.
