Factory Theatre is of the same generation and importance as fellow non-profit alternatives Theatre Passe Muraille and Tarragon Theatre. In its history, the theatre has produced more than 150 new Canadian plays on the mainstage and 500 more in workshop and other formats. Housed in an attractive Victorian mansion, the Factory Theatre operates two theatre spaces. The upstairs Mainspace is a 200-seat house that has the feel of an old sanctuary. Downstairs, the Studio Theatre Cafe is a long, narrow, intimate space with 100 seats. Both the mainspace and studio cafes have licensed lounges where refreshments are served before and after the show.

Saved from oblivion a few decades ago by the flamboyant discount retailer “Honest” Ed Mirvish, the Royal Alexandra Theatre, which opened in 1907, is the epitome of old-world theatre opulence. From the thousands of single light bulbs that make up the marquee, to waist-coated ushers and polished brass railings, hand-carved walnut and cherry wood, sumptuous red velvet seats and private boxes separated by heavy curtains, this Alex lives up to the royalty of its name. Throughout the years, the theatre has housed performances by theatre greats like John and Ethel Barrymore, Orson Welles, Deborah Kerr and Edith Piaf.

The selections are incredible- things like lychee and raspberry or ginger milk. Sometimes they have avocado ice cream on the list as well. You have your choice of your flavour in waffle, sugar or regular cones, OR between cookies (like ginger snaps or chocolate) in a dish , or in cones OR in a cinnamon bun. We just ate hamburgers around the corner ( Frankies) so I couldn't fit any fancy type. I had to go with a single scoop of chocolate peanut butter in a cone . Soooo Creamy

1) fungi mushroom burger- Excellent 2) Aristotle burger- excellent but very drippy 3) original burger- excellent ( it really was consistent) 4) the Texan - with fried jalapenos and naucho chips!_ excellent and very filling . 5) The vegetarian soy burger was so good my vegetarian friend thought that the burger was meat. Wow! that is an endorsement at the top level. I also want to mention another friend of mine wanted a pita instead of a bun and the request was done no problem..They also have their own hot sauce on the table to add. The fries were rated differently. One friend had fries that were old and not good at all. A few others had really good crispy fries. all plates had far too many fries on them. The sweet potato fries with dip were the best!
