LADIES' DAY
this was FABULOUS! its so hard ot do theatre in the round. this was amazing! great use of space, blocking, it mad eme laugh, cry and feel. used so many classic theatre tricks, synchonized swimming, choral speaking, overlays of voices.... repitition in a lovely way and kept the actors really moving. really lovely true story. Beautiful best in the whole fringe i thought
Excellent show! All the actor's are absolutely amazing. This is a realistic and heartfelt story!. Thank you for putting on a show about ladies.
60's "women's lib" movement is incubated in a Cdn suburb backyard pool in this subversive dramedy. This could be a #theaTO company's season highlight, if the ending is tightened up—a 'true story" reveal dilutes the witty surrealism.
Alessandro Stracuzzi's NNNNN (!!) review of Ladies' Day from NEXT Magazine.
A hit of the Fringe. Beautifully conceived and written, to reimagine your own grandmother's shenanigans in an era when Betty Friedan was just lifting the curtain on the stifling life of the suburban housewife. The cast members are all terrific and the show is polished, perfectly set at the VideoCabaret space. It is very funny yet heartfelt - and with tradwives being today's thing, it's surprisingly relevant.
Funny, poignant, insightful, and heartfelt. Lots of laughs, a few moments to maybe well up a little, some cringe, and some perspective on a bygone era, so that we can maybe relate to our mothers and grandmothers a bit better? Go and see it!
