Playwrights Rick Blue & George Bowser
Directed by Roy Surette
Musical Directors Rick Blue & George Bowser
Choreographer Shane Snow
Inspired by Bill Brownstein’s popular book, “Schwartz's Hebrew Delicatessen: The Story”, comedy duo extraordinaire Bowser & Blue bring the colourful story to life on stage with a full cast of larger-than-life characters who call Schwartz's "home," and some of the many customers who pass through its doors. Schwartz's: The Musical celebrates the eccentric side of Schwartz’s and what makes us Montrealers with lots of humour, wit and heart, while grappling with such issues as the smoked meat and pastrami debate, the food police, the measure of success in tumultuous times and the dreaded F-word: franchise!

Talking about smoke meat, I tried Dunn's on Sources road yesterday and I was very impressed and will be going regularly in the future. Things where quiet but since the restaurant was opened fairly recently, I am sure things will pick up once word gets around.
