We took an Uber to the Royal Alexandra Theater in downtown Toronto to see a play at 1:00. The Royal Alex is located across the street from the Canada walk of fame and it is next to several interesting buildings. We were early so we looked at the "stars" in the sidewalk and puttered around a bit. A half hour before the show was to start we entered the theater only to find we were at the wrong place! The show was being held at the Ed Mirvish theater. This show was part of a theater series where each show is put on in a different theater, this is how we were led astray. We hopped into another ride to get to the correct theater and sat in frustrating traffic. It was close but we got into the second theater with 10 minutes to spare. We had both read and enjoyed the book so we knew what to expect. The real star of the show was the puppetry. There were puppets for the tiger, the orangutang, the zebra, the hyena, several fish and other smaller animals too. We really loved the theater and the show.
