Tracy and I are going to "Cinderella: A Fairy Tall Tale"  tonight – can’t wait! I've been to many plays/musicals/shows at the Confederation Centre over years (including Anne of Green Gables when I was a little girl). We are truly lucky to have the Confederation Centre, the high quality and variety of entertainment is outstanding. Such a wonderful Christmas gift to buy your family/friends - an evening they won't forget!

Drop by the Showcase at 145 Richmond Street (or use their Queen Street entrance). You can also visit their website, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Another winner will be randomly chosen today for #MyDowntownWishList - I hope you are the lucky one. Remember, the more photos you share from your downtown shopping experience, the more chances you have to win :)
