Belleville, ON – The Albert College Drama Department has done it once again, with another triumph of romantic comedy. In the production of Love/Sick, John Cariani’s masterful dramatic writing skills come to life through the hard work of Leslie Austin, drama teacher and director, and the 17 dedicated student-actors from Belleville, Picton, the Quinte region and abroad. Come to Albert College this February 6, 7 and 8 for this hilariously dark, absurd and even emotional exploration of love and loss. A review of Love/Sick by CTX Live Theatre asks, “When the heart begins to throb unexpectedly, are we able to respond? Are our affections real or are they shaped by society’s expectations? And what do we do when the thrill is gone?” With 17 actors and 20 different diverse roles, audiences are bound to find someone to relate to. The show is full of imperfect lovers and dreamers, from an obsessive-impulsive couple to a man who can’t quite say “I love you,” from a woman who has a very… exciting lunch, to a couple who forgot to have the baby. Love/Sick is an unromantic comedy for the romantic in everyone. RSVP for tickets at albertcollege.ca for Love/Sick on February 6, 7 and 8 at 7:00 p.m. Admission this year is free, and everyone in Belleville and beyond is invited to attend. In lieu of ticket sales, cash donations will be accepted on the performance evenings, which will be donated to Gleaners Food Bank. Albert College is located at 160 Dundas Street West.

Belleville, ON – The Albert College Drama Department has done it once again, with another triumph of romantic comedy. In the production of Love/Sick, John Cariani’s masterful dramatic writing skills come to life through the hard work of Leslie Austin, drama teacher and director, and the 17 dedicated student-actors from Belleville, Picton, the Quinte region and abroad. Come to Albert College this February 6, 7 and 8 for this hilariously dark, absurd and even emotional exploration of love and loss. A review of Love/Sick by CTX Live Theatre asks, “When the heart begins to throb unexpectedly, are we able to respond? Are our affections real or are they shaped by society’s expectations? And what do we do when the thrill is gone?” With 17 actors and 20 different diverse roles, audiences are bound to find someone to relate to. The show is full of imperfect lovers and dreamers, from an obsessive-impulsive couple to a man who can’t quite say “I love you,” from a woman who has a very… exciting lunch, to a couple who forgot to have the baby. Love/Sick is an unromantic comedy for the romantic in everyone. RSVP for tickets at albertcollege.ca for Love/Sick on February 6, 7 and 8 at 7:00 p.m. Admission this year is free, and everyone in Belleville and beyond is invited to attend. In lieu of ticket sales, cash donations will be accepted on the performance evenings, which will be donated to Gleaners Food Bank. Albert College is located at 160 Dundas Street West.

Firewood Rescues Pop-Up We have the perfect thing for those hard to buy for folks in your life, just in time for Valentines Day! or any other day actually. Marks beautiful lathed creations add beauty to any room. A little bit about Mark Boates the creator of Firewood Rescues I am a carpenter and woodworker from Belleville Ontario. My love of woodworking began early with time spent in my dad’s workshop and working with my grandfather in the woods of Northern Ontario. About 7 years ago I acquired a lathe from a friend when she was clearing out her father’s workshop after he passed. I was instantly hooked, there was no turning back, no firewood pile was safe. I predominantly work with found wood, either from cutting down trees myself, or from already down trees, revealing the beauty within wood destined to become firewood became my passion. The artistic expression that wood turning provides ultimately became the perfect companion to the more structured world of carpentry. Most of my spare time that I don’t spend at my lathe finds me canoeing, hiking, camping and enjoying all things in nature.
