COMEDY, CABARET, AND COFFEE TALK with RYAN G. HINDS
The monthly cabaret/chat show returns for October, with a trick or treat bag of comedy, music and drag. This sassy evening has earned raves from The Grid ("Hinds is hilarious; makes a great case for the lost art of cabaret in Toronto. His show made me giddy!" - Paul Aguirre-Livingston) and Indecent Xposure ("a one-of-a-kind side-splitting spectacle. Hinds is clever, comical and musically well-endowed and the coffee talk element of his show brings a unique sense of intimacy" - Chantal Da Silva). This month, Hinds welcomes:

In 2012, Ryan made his Brazilian cabaret debut, performing in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, and followed it up with the multi-artist revue DISCO DOWN for Pride Toronto. He also made his Summerworks debut with the play "Dutchman" for Lemontree/Obsidian with Sabryn Rock, and performed in the critically acclaimed Nuit Blanche installation "Museum of the Rapture". Ryan's previous Nuit Blanche creation, 2007's End of the Party Party (in collaboration with Will Munro and Ina unt Ina) set a single-night attendance record for the Art Gallery of Ontario. His theatre work includes Sky Gilbert's Dora-nominated "The Bewitching of Max Gunther" at Passe Muraille, De Colores Festival of New Works, Greta in "Bent" at Hart House and a 15-year association with Buddies in Bad Times (highlights include "Tightrope" with Montreal's 2Boys.tv, three consecutive years in Rhubarb Festival, "P'artiste" with The Scandelles, "Half-Cocked", his own show "Glitter all the Way!", and 2 years as co-curator of ART ATTACK, Buddies' annual fundraiser).
