If, like us, you're mourning the passing of this summer's fantastic indie theatre festivals (Toronto Fringe, SummerWorks) and the novel, experimental shows that go with them, you'll be pleased to know No More Masterpieces theatre company is holding a very Fringe-esque production called The Girl Who Married a Ghost at the InterAccess Gallery at Queen and Ossington. This complex play bravely steps into the landmine of North American Aboriginal history and subtly comments on the work of prominent artists of various disciplines (photography, theatre, visual art) who did the same in their day.

ART: At tonight's opening of their latest spook show, "A Recession of Mortality," Syphilitic Mermaids Magazine brings you the ghost-themed work of contributors SBK (previously known as Sketchbookkid and also known as 'Lil) and Triumphene. Best known for her abstract graffiti ghosts and as illustrator of Tiny Tommy Comics, travelling artist and photographer SBK will be showcasing five mural-sized renditions of her ghostly line drawings, as well as some of her photos. Montreal-based illustrator and artist Triumphene (a.k.a. Eli W. Rockmell) will contribute her own cartoon murals—rumoured to include a depiction of the ghost of your first pet. The show also celebrates Canadian DIY, with a selection of chapbooks and other handcrafted releases, as well as live music by VIVIV, Kram Ran, MANT, and DJ Lord Lankan.
