Seana McKenna: Canadian theatre’s leading lady has an affinity for show-stopping roles. She’s tackling Sister Aloysius in Doubt at Canadian Stage this month and this summer marks her 18th season at Stratford with the title role in Racine’s Phèdre.
What she's wearing: Dress by Andy Thê Anh, price upon request, at andytheanh.com. Necklace ($280) by Arielle de Pinto, at Delphic.
Natasha Mytnowych: One of the city’s most promising directors, Mytnowych has received high praise for her collaborations with playwright Hannah Moscovitch (The Russian Play). In June, she heads up CanStage’s Festival of Ideas and Creation.
What she's wearing: Dress ($1,095) by Miss Rowe, at TNT Gallerie. Necklace by Dean Davidson, price upon request, at deandavidson.com.
Measha Brueggergosman: The celebrity soprano finds herself in familiar territory this June—the spotlight. Fresh from an international itinerary, she’ll perform Strauss with the TSO.
What she's wearing: Jacket ($600) by Magpie Designs. Hat ($195) by Lilliput Hats. Amber and citrine ring ($9,800) from the Measha Collection, by Myles Mindham.
Charles Officer: Nurse.Fighter.Boy., his first feature film, debuted at TIFF last year and opened to raves in February. Next up, the actor–writer–director–former pro hockey player is shooting a doc on the Canadian Olympic sprinter Harry Jerome.
What he's wearing: Shirt ($395) and pants ($2,195 with blazer, not shown) by DSquared2, at Holt Renfrew. Eyewear ($410) by Oliver Peoples and Spectacle.
Justin Rutledge: The hybrid hipster-crooner (imagine Hank Williams if he grew up in the Junction) is just coming off a Canadian tour for his latest release, Man Descending.
What he's wearing: Blazer ($495), vest ($225), shirt ($185) and pants ($245) by Bustle, at Jacflash.
Lucy Peacock: The Stratford vet’s 22nd season includes such wildly divergent roles as Masha, the sardonic sib in Three Sisters; Ursla, the 400-pound pig woman in Bartholomew Fair; and an ex‑stripper in Morris Panych’s new play, The Trespassers.
What she's wearing: Skirt ($295) and top ($95) by Brian Bailey.
