Hark, what app through yonder smart phone shines.

It's just the Stratford Festival's new app, it seems, developed by Metronome Mobile Media Solutions and now available as a free download for Fest fans eager to find out the latest in playbill information, ticket availability and other pressing theatrical information. Visit www.stratfordshakespearefestival.com for further information — and once the new app is installed, don't forget to shut your phone off before the play starts.

After a run at Toronto's Panasonic Theatre, the musical MY MOTHER'S LESBIAN JEWISH WICCAN WEDDING has been selected as one of 27 musicals in the annual New York Musical Theatre Festival, slated to hit the Big Apple Sept. 27 through Oct. 17. For further info, visit www.nymf.org.

The Mirvish organization announced Wednesday that a final week of performances has been added to HOW NOW, MRS. BROWN COW!, a theatrical bundle from Britain, described as "The Susan Boyle of comedy." HOW NOW... will now run at the Canon Theatre August 19 through Sept. 4, following a limited preview.
