"Labia Loving Ladies" Live, Laugh and Find Love
In the season finale of the sapphic reality competition of your dreams/nightmares, a fierce final four of lovable lesbians have one final chance to win influencer and entrepreneur Ashleighy's heart. Supported by some truly clever framing devices including confessional booths where contestants can give hysterical asides and chaotic date suggestions from the audience, the improv skills of these talented actors can really shine. You'll be sure to experience lots of steamy innuendos (the gay kind, don't worry), high-drama fights (also the gay kind, don't worry), and good old fashioned absurdity, all hosted by the incomparable diva, Buttercream. Do yourself a favor, and get out to Cabin Fever!

Venue: Theatre in the Round
Held my breath the whole time!!
Get ready to set sail on a ride of a lifetime! Breach is an imaginative, intense, and surprising story of a rag-tag group of fisherTHEMS and their turbulent misadventures on the dangerous high seas. Gritty, tough, and unrelenting, this group of powerhouse performers were completely believable as a weathered + dysfunctional, yet endearing crew of sailors, each with their own objectives and downfalls. From folky musical numbers, creative light design, larger-than-life puppetry, beautiful movement sequences, and silly drinking games, the show really has it all. Go see BREACH and find out if this team has what it takes to endure the shitstorm of all shitstorms!

Show: The Abortion Chronicles
Venue: Rarig Kilburn Theatre
Captivating and Moving!
The Abortion Chronicles captures such a diverse swath of experiences around this urgent topic. Each chronicle revealed a new perspective, broadening my understanding of what it means to make such a complicated, or not complicated, choice. The performances were brilliant, each actor delivering their story with precision and heart. I absolutely recommend this show!
