    Divas in the City

    Toronto’s First Forum for Fabulousness

    She’s got the upwardly mobile 9-5, company blackberry, one bedroom plus den, Pilates class pass and a weak spot for VIP sample sales. Everything is good on paper, but she’s searching for something more…and that’s not code for “boyfriend”. Call it meaning, passion or joie de vivre: She wants to be Diva-fied.

    • Are you living it large with fabulous Coach bags but worried about making mortgage payments?
    • Does grandma bug you about when you’ll “settle down?”
    • Are some men intimidated by your success?
    • Do you play “nice” at work because you fear being called a bitch?
    • Are lifestyle differences (friends in the burbs) making friendships harder to maintain?
    • Have you hit a plateau in your fitness regime?

    “BACK TO YOU: A DEAR JOHN (MAYER) LETTER”
    Starring: Martin Lindquist, Carla Lopez, Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll & Brianne Hogan
    John Mayer’s a “douchebag.” Everyone knows it. He knows it. Tired of his tabloid tenure as Hollywood’s “Mr. Wrong”, he sets out to find his long-lost Japanese summer school love, Rihanna (no, not that one) to right his romantic wrongs. Inevitable hijinks ensue when Rihanna’s pals, Carly and Calvin, learn of their friend’s forbidden love, realize their own artistic careers could benefit from a Mayer-iffic meeting, and do everything in their power to make it happen—even if it means creating a “Heartbreak Warfare.”
