From bans on kids to plus-one snubs, what modern wedding rules make you mad?
Shriver's guest list conundrum is a common dilemma these days as nuptial norms shift and change in our modern era. Etiquette and lifestyle coach Nuwan Sirimanna of the Oakville-based Etiquette Matters Institute of Etiquette finds that people today are more relaxed about traditional wedding rules. 'Many old-school customs, like formal dress codes, strict gift lists and printed invitations, have been replaced with more modern, flexible choices,' he says. 'Couples now often make their weddings more personal by mixing cultures, skipping big traditions or even planning non-traditional events like backyard or brunch weddings.'

Fringe Review: 1 Small Lie a bit of bravura storytelling from Martin Dockery
1 Small Lie: Martin Dockery 5 stars out of 5 Stage 2, Next Act Backstage Theatre, 10330 84 Ave. That's how it always starts, right? Just a slight prevarication, a tiny falsehood, whether well intentioned or not. New York-based performer Martin Dockery's initial fib sets off a chain of events that takes his most recent monologue into James M Cain territory, a hard-boiled tale of small-town avarice and paranoia. Set and precisely timed to an atmospheric soundtrack that pulses with menace, Dockery guides you through early pandemic-era Montauk, N.Y., where a wounded deer, a duffel bag full of money, and a beautiful but mysterious next-door neighbor add up to the stuff of nightmares.

This is the kind of performance that reminds you just how good a Fringe play can be. As funny as it is suspenseful, 1 Small Lie is a bit like if Spadling Gray steeped himself in the novels of Jim Thompson. The question will pop up in your head at some point: Did any of this really happen? As Dockery says at the very beginning, 'don't worry about it.'
