I have always loved coming to the Shaw Festival and beautiful Niagra on the Lake. The plays are just great, the shopping and meals, art galleries, and parks are thrilling. Everything quite a joy...

A group of friends enjoyed the presentation of "Holiday Inn". The music and dancing was just tremendous. We all thoroughly enjoyed the performance.
