I Ruin Things For A Living

The Placeholder Show—Dave Barber Cinematheque

J.D. Renaud is back at the Fringe, this time with a bit more introspective show. He is trying to determine why he is feeling a little bit out of sorts and brings the audience along while he digs into what is bothering him. He is a great storyteller and he uses his simple, but hilarious, line animations displayed on a screen to add another dimension to the stories he tells.

The stories are heartfelt and personal, but ones that most of us can relate to, and there is plenty of laughs to lighten the mood. If you don’t already know of him, this would be a great way to get introduced to one of our Fringe gems.
