Synopsis "Topp: Promoter Gary Topp Brought us the World (in English)"
As with all of Colliers work, his latest graphic novel is a combination of memoir and biography. This time, he explores his involvement in the cultural landscape of Toronto in the 1970s and 80s, specifically focusing on the life of Gary Topp, a concert promoter and founder of the pioneering Canadian repertory cinema. Topp emerged from an immigrant background, abandoned the family textile business, and became an influential figure in the lives of an entire community. He was also Colliers first boss and mentor. Though outspoken and opinionated, Gary Topp inspired love and devotion, not only in those who worked for him, but also in the acts he bookedincluding the Ramones, The Police, and the Dixie Chicks.This graphic novel looks at a rapidly disappearing past and uses Topps ability to see beyond the mainstream for a look at where our culture is heading.
