Clothing you can only really findin the stacked costume racks of a theatre. The next dayRaha drove us to Riverdale farm, I did my makeup in thecar, we got our instruments and walked to a quiet forestedarea. Dahlia Katz, the photographer, found a spot wherethe sun was shining through the leaves and we sang “Youare my Sunshine” together about 20 times until Dahlia washappy, and we were happy, and we all walked back past thechickens, and the goats, to our cars and drove homethrough one of those perfect windy fall days in Toronto.(see page 18)8 FOR OPENERS | Waxingnostalgic | DAVID PERLMANSTORIES & INTERVIEWS10 CHORAL SCENE | Jean-Sébastian Vallée’s TMChoir |ANGUS MACCAULL12 IN WITH THE NEW | In With aBang | WENDALYN BARTLEY16 PERFORMANCE – SPACE |D.D.
