Les Virtuoses Reminds Me Why I Love Theatre

By Laura Moore on Thursday, August 2, 2018

I remember years ago, when I first began working in theatre, I made a promise to myself that I would never allow it to become just a job. I first stepped foot on a stage when I was four years old, and from that moment on I knew that I wanted to be a part …

A Thank You to the Cast and Crew of Solo

By Laura Moore on Sunday, June 17, 2018

I love going to the movies. I love movies in general, but there’s something about going to the cinema and sharing in the experience of watching a movie with a roomful of strangers. It’s a weird thing to enjoy when you lay it out like that, but life is kind of weird sometimes, so I …

2016: Goodbye, Good Riddance, and Thank You

By Laura Moore on Saturday, December 31, 2016

There’s been a lot of talk recently about how 2016 was the worst year ever. You see it in headlines, think pieces, social media arguments, and my personal favourite, 2016 reimagined as a horror film in one particularly brilliant faux film trailer. Whatever your feelings on 2016, it’s clear that a lot of people are …

My Heart Hurts, and It’s Not Because of Donald Trump

By Laura Moore on Wednesday, November 9, 2016

As I write this my heart hurts. Not just with the heavy feeling of loss that so many are experiencing after last night’s US election results, but with an actual acute physical pain. I’ve been crying on and off all day, and my stomach feels like it’s permanently stuck on a roller coaster. You would think …

By Laura Moore on Monday, April 11, 2016

As published on Inspirelle on April 7th, 2016. © Laura Moore Two years ago, I heard about the Dopey Challenge at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It’s a running challenge that spans four days, four races, and 48.6 miles, where you run a 5K on the first day, a 10K on the second day, a half marathon on the third, …

10 Moments that Remind Me I’m Back in Canada

By Laura Moore on Sunday, October 4, 2015

It’s a weird thing to experience culture shock when returning to your native country, but after a year in France, it’s taken me by surprise how accustomed I had gotten to the French way of doing things. This past week has been filled with little moments of readjustment and adaptation, and while I certainly haven’t …

Trailer Talk – Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

By Laura Moore on Sunday, July 12, 2015

Release Date: March 25th, 2016 In the summer of 2013, I saw three of that summer’s big blockbuster offerings in quick succession, and I came away from that experience deeply unsettled. First up was Iron Man 3; a film that spent nearly 90 minutes convincing us that the so called bad guys with the explosive …
