Just when you thought Toronto Pride was over…

A lineup at Woody’s at 1pm on a Monday? Sorta.

The production crew of Being Erica has shut down part of Church Street today to recreate scenes from Toronto Pride.

The crew is scheduled to film outside of Woody’s/Sailor from 7am to 11pm.

Unfortunately, they weren’t able to recreate Toronto Pride’s hot and sunny weather. As we stepped out to shoot a few photos, it started to rain and most of the crew headed inside.
