Loved this show! My favourite so far(out of 7). Savannah's so naturally funny & authentic. She clearly seemed to be having fun up on stage, & so were we. I really liked how she wove some of her indigenous background into her stories, including a funny line about going hunting with her dad(I won't spoil it, you'll have to go to find out). I looked her up after, & turns out she's a bit of a comic-about-town already!? I would've easily paid more than double to see this show. Entertaining! If it's on your maybe list, grab a tkt, it's a stylish treat.
I went to this because it's fun to see an out-of-town artist(Cheng is from Chicago) & who doesn't have trouble with their hair? It was a story about Cheng sorting thru feelings about her childhood & coming-of-age thru a lens of hair mishaps & wins. I went to her 1st show, it took a few mins for me to warm up to the material but I soon was mesmerized by it & her delivery. Honest, insightful & beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us, Ada.
If you've ever loved a cat, or any pet for that matter, this show is a must-see. It's tender, cute, whimsical & thoughtful. It takes place in a cat rescue & the 'kittens' are awaiting an important talk from a meow-re experienced cat. This show had me laughing both with it, and at it, & tearing up a few times. If it's on your 'maybe' list, then fit it in while you can still see it! Purrrrfectly adorable.
There's even a chance to buy a tiny cat handmade by the playwright at the end, so bring along some 5s & 10's!
I'm even considering going again. :)
Delightful Vancouver comic Yumi shares her life & personal growth story, with an (imperfect) parent focus, thru a sparkling, enlightened performance. I saw her first show. Includes some fun dance & visuals. π§ββοΈ
Hopeful & inspirational ending. Sweet, relatable & touching!
Yumi, thank you for sharing this thoughtful piece with us! @karenkra
Silly & imaginative! They travel into dif years in the future. Really liked the 1st & last couple skits, very creative. Also the Housewives of the Underground & related jokes were hilarious! They didn't seem to have mikes on(one of my pet peeves) so I missed about a quarter of the dialogue as I was sitting half way back at Improv Ctr, so partially my fault. Next time, I'd sit in the first 2 rows to catch everything. @karenkra
Entertaining, visually mesmerizing at times, a touching underlying story. Very talented performers! I liked the solarpunk theme too. I suggest seeing it with a comedy before or after, to get a good yin yan of relaxing & crazy. π @karenkra
