The Waffle House Daze—The Cinematheque

Tom Waits if Tom Waits were… a 36 year old 5’2 blonde woman who doesn’t play any instruments.

“Raunchy” & “Brutally honest” storytelling!

You know her from The Beer Show, but The Waffle House Daze is Trish’s 3rd solo show, but the FIRST she has brought here! Come get saturated in the humidity and fats of southern living with words of decadence and wisdom, and possibly come out the other side feeling better about yourself and more hopeful for the world.

2201: A Sex Odyssey—The Cinematheque

I thought after doing the beer show for 2 years in Winnipeg, it was time to take more of a risk! With the help of many collaborators over the past year, we bring you this new work: a dramatic fictional storytelling show set in the probable future when AI sex robots try to take over the world, featuring a special guest star. Will we survive?!

Tumbling After—MTYP – Richardson Hall

With classic characters in less classic situations -this is a dark comedy where the fairytales aren’t the only thing to get fractured. Do you think you’ve heard this one before? Well we got wolf attacks, forced gnome labour, sex ed taught by a pirate, the Boogie Man, a serial killer and the moral is, sometimes life really does lead to and astonishing implosion. We just gave away the moral? Oh My Goose! But you should see it live onstage!

Sizzle and Spark

Hushabye – A Doomsday Comedy—MTYP – Richardson Hall

Hushabye- A Doomsday Comedy: Official selection of the 2017 Canadian Clown Festival Tour (Montreal, Toronto & Edmonton).

Sizzle and Spark Fandango were birthed from the deepest fears and boundless desires of Jed Tomlinson and Jacqueline Russell. Created in the grand Canadian tradition of theatrical adult clown shows (Mump and Smoot, Morro and Jasp), HUSHABYE is a examination of the puzzling, hilarious mess we create when we are trapped by our illusions of how our lives are supposed to look.

Lip Service—MTC Up the Alley

“Perfectly executed” and “Unforgettable” – Apt 613

“Top-notch comic skills” – The Visitorium

“The audience was HOWLING” – Ottawa Tonight

Lip Service is a performance of two larger-than-life vulvas navigating their relationships to service, self-acceptance, and sexual empowerment within a hilarious world of doing, knowing, and being it all. Infused with clown, contemporary dance, pop music, and more puns than you’ll know what to do with, expect to be laughing uncontrollably and deeply moved by this portrayal of the female experience.

There Ain’t No More!—MTC Up the Alley
