Time to work on your flibberdigibbets and will-o’-the-wisps, auditions for CBC’s How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria? were announced this week. If you think you have what it takes to be the next Von Trapp, show up (lederhosen optional), February 8 at CBC Television on Bell Road. Register at areyoumaria.com. If you’re more of a watcher, or if you’d like a change from the usual post-work wings and jalapeno poppers, there’s Kinetic Studio Dance‘s popular Dancing on the Head of a Pin, a cabaret-style performance on Tuesday, January 22 at The Seahorse Tavern. Feet go fast and furious with Belindance, Cory Bowles, Kym Butler, Leslie Carvery, Susanne Chui, Steve Dooks, Las Niñas, Toni Pigot and Sophie Roy. Doors open at 5pm, show from 5:50-7:30pm, with a $5 donation.
