Museum at TUTS

I was back at TUTS this past week, watching Shrek. I will be there a few times over the next few weeks, volunteering in their museum tent.
TUTS has a long and colourful history, I believe this is their 68th year!
The museum has awesome pictures from years gone by, including one where the Queen visited.
There are postcards from all their past seasons - it really is a wonderful company.
Backstage at Malkin Bowl, the company signs the wall when they appear or help in a show. One year, we did Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. I was in the pit choir and my hubbie (then boyfriend) was Reuben, the eldest brother. We all signed a ceiling tile, which was removed during a round of backstage renovations. So it now hangs in the museum. There are a lot of names on this tile, from so many talented performers and people that we are still lucky to call friends. 

So if you're in Stanley Park seeing Shrek or Legally Blond, please check out the awesome TUTS museum too!
