Charlie Sheen in Toronto: Violent Torpedo of Meh
It seemed nobody was quite sure what to expect from Charlie Sheen’s first Toronto show at Massey Hall on Thursday.
“Either he bombs and it’s good. Or it’s good and it’s good,” said UOIT student Ian Wright as he waited in line. “We win either way.”
As it turns out, Sheen’s show didn’t fit into either category. It wasn’t awful, but it certainly wasn’t amazing. Instead, audience members left feeling a bit confused and rather underwhelmed. As she was walking down the stairs of Massey Hall, one woman said she would have rather just paid to see a Russell Peters show instead.
