There are so many reasons why you should see this show. Thematically - profound and funny, with razor-sharp commentary and increasingly layered depth. Absurdity reflecting reality in a perfectly fringe-y mirror. Performances - this ensemble are so tight. If you saw last year's "It's not the End of the World" you will be thrilled to see the return of this all-female ensemble. Each actor does a spectacular job of shining in their moments and supporting each other when not taking the lead. Mask/Puppetry - the exceptional skill displayed throughout the show is world-class. I've never seen a two-handed puppet so beautifully executed in "The Boy", worth the price of admission alone. The story - Painfully relatable and accurate. The ending was surprisingly emotional, very understated and yet completely profound. I don't want to spoil anything but happy to chat about it once you've seen the show 😉 This playwright and ensemble are really the "ones to watch" when it comes to the Vancouver alternative theatre scene. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
