The Ethan in the Room

Stark Raving Productions—Théâtre Cercle Molière

What a powerhouse of a show! I did not quite know what I was walking into when I arrived, and the show is excellent in its absurdity and comedy. The script gets into some important discussion of gender roles and identity but Ethan Stark has created something much more than that here. This show begins with the greatest mic drop of a land acknowledgement I have ever heard, and delivered a VERY essential message that had me gripped and several people crying. I am blown away by the brilliance of this work and I know that Stark is only beginning. My only regret, which I know is shared by a few others as well, is that we wish we’d seen it sooner so that we could have recommend it to our friends earlier in the festival. There are still a few performances left so make sure you get your tickets.
