Photo Coverage: New Production Photos from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum was a smash hit at this year's Stratford Shakespeare Festival and this holiday season it comes to Toronto with both stars alternating in the lead role of Pseudolus. Bruce Dow originated the role in Stratford but had to bow out due to a vocal chord injury, at which point Sean Cullen stepped in and finished out the season. Now the two very funny men are coming together and sharing the role, which gives audiences the perfect excuse to come and visit The Forum twice!

In a year that has seen many celebrations of Stephen Sondheim's work (including a very special Q&A presented by Mirvish a few weeks ago) it seems only fitting to get to end out the year with one of his early works. A true farce, A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Forum promises sex, greed, comedy and TOGAS!

Brand new production photos were just realized showcasing the cast in their new home at The Canon Theatre and both Sean Cullen and Bruce Dow in the lead role of Pseudolus.

Kelly Cameron's love affair with the theatre began when she was just five years old, on an outing to see the Original Canadian Cast of Les Miserables at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto. She instantly fell in love, and since then has been lucky enough to be involved in various theatre activities and productions, including a regional production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and a local production of Where the Sidewalk Ends. She has also received training from various teachers throughout Southwestern Ontario in both piano and voice, and competed in vocal competitions for which she received a few awards. Her writing career started almost by accident, when she had the opportunity to become a ghostwriter for up and coming businesses. She continues to do this, writing the content for all sorts of companies who are starting websites and looking to find their voice. Her passion and love for theatre led to her becoming involved with BroadwayWorld where she is thrilled to be writing for the Toronto contingent of the rapidly growing website. When she isn't at the theatre, you can generally find her firmly planted in front of her trusty Blackberry - tweeting, Facebooking or partaking in other such social media activities to ensure that those who want to know are kept apprised of everything that Toronto theatre has to offer. Other interests include movies, art, music, shopping, fashion and martial arts with the occasional foray into the world of finance.
