2025 Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival

This smart, science-focused kids’ show captivated my 3-year-old (who thought it was “so funny” but probably didn’t understand everything) and my 7-year-old (who liked “Buttons coming to life” and “the part when they made the solar system”). Older audience members get to appreciate the brilliant word play, nerdy jokes and strong performances. This was a unique show amongst the theatre for kids offerings and kept us talking about it for the rest of the afternoon. Loved it and would recommend for a range of ages.

Mind Blown

A brilliant, thought-provoking, hilarious, unsettling hour. This is not a pedantic colonialism 101; it was both deeper and funnier than I'd expected. There were so many moments I wished I could pause to just think a bit longer about what they'd just presented. The performers expertly used humour in a way that both entertained and kept us off-kilter (sometimes uncomfortable in a way that felt appropriate to the subject matter), but never felt glib or like they were making light of dark historical and contemporary realities. So glad I caught this show - I'll be thinking about it for a long time.

Laughed So Hard I Cried

Hilarious, smart, original, delightfully ridiculous. This show was everything I love about the Fringe.
