SUMMARY:LOUNGE: Lit Live (First Sunday of every month)
DESCRIPTION:https://www.litlivereadings.com/ \n\n\n\nLitLive is monthly reading series in Hamilton\, Ontario\, Canada. \nFounded by Hamilton writer Kerry Schooley in 1995\, Lit Live is a monthly literary reading series featuring a diverse and exciting range of writers from across Canada and from Hamilton. We meet on the first Sunday of each month from September to June\, and our location is The Staircase. We also livestream our events (click here). \nWe are unusual in that we have poets\, novelists\, short story writers\, non-fiction writers\, and sometimes YA writers on the same bill\, each reading for about 15 minutes. Also\, each event is themed (“Languishing\,” “Play\,” “Diversions\,” etc.) and we encourage our writers to engage with the theme as they see fit. \nThe series has developed a reputation for its warm and engaging atmosphere with an enthusiastic\, attentive audience of both regulars and those who attend to hear a specific favourite writer. Hosting duties for LitLive are shared between committee members Anuja Varghese and Brent van Staalduinen. \nThe series has featured legendary writers\, major names and the winners of major awards (the GGs\, the Giller\, the Griffin)\, established writers with one or more books to their credit\, but also regularly has a spot for “emerging writers\,” those talented up-and-comers who haven’t yet published a full length book.  \nLitLive readings are supported by the Ontario Arts Council\, the Canada Council\, the Writer’s Union of Canada\, the Hamilton Arts Council\, and the League of Canadian Poets.

SUMMARY:THEATRE: B-Movies Hamilton: Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/jesus-christ-vampire-hunter-the-staircase-tickets-1987349044490?aff=oddtdtcreator \n\n\nJoin us for our Screening of Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter – Thursday May 21 \n\n\n\n\nJesus Christ Vampire Hunter @ The Staircase \nJesus Christ Vampire Hunter is a proudly offbeat Canadian cult film that mixes action\, comedy\, and musical flair into a singularly memorable experience. Set in Ottawa\, it follows Jesus—returned to Earth early—teaming up with legendary luchador El Santo to protect the city’s lesbian community from a rising vampire threat. Rather than aiming for polish\, the movie leans into its DIY spirit\, delivering energetic fight scenes\, playful humor\, and a surprisingly earnest sense of fun that has helped it earn a loyal fanbase among lovers of quirky\, unconventional cinema.
