In a feat of riveting comedy, one-eyed cancer survivor and MOTH storytelling champion, Stéphanie Morin-Robert, recounts her life as a feisty 7-year-old who wields her glass-eye as a weapon. With the help of her cat, a pair of sunglasses, and an undesirable superpower, she soon discovers that she has what it takes to face her tormenting bullies at her new school and come to terms with her disability.

Told entirely through song, we witness the journey of four friends as they explore the split second between life and death when their lives flash before their eyes. In this moment each character grapples with the important, profound and unfinished moments of their lives. This unique song cycle utilizes voices, percussion and guitar to tell this story. Together we explore themes of loss, fear, religion, self-reflection and hope, and which moments really matter when you are faced with a life altering event.

Stupid Ed is Taiwanese-Canadian Comedian Ed Hill’s follow up show to his critically acclaimed comedy special, Candy & Smiley, on Amazon Prime.
Stupid Ed is intimate, insightful, and at times -- incredible. Comprised of introspections about Ed’s relationships with the female figures in his life, the show explores the values that a first-generation Taiwanese Canadian immigrant has learned from his motherland, Canada. Stupid Ed is both a heartwarming and heartbreaking story. It is a close examination on the meaning of strength, a genuine reflection on the concept of fragility, and an honest observation on what connects all of us: Love.

In this moment each character grapples with the important, profound and unfinished moments of their lives. This unique song cycle utilizes voices, percussion and guitar to tell this story.

A bartender. On a break. In the bathroom. Peeing on a stick. Equal parts protest and celebration, Stigma, Pistil and Style is a joyful exploration of bodily autonomy and sexual agency.
In a nightclub single stall washroom Vooma awaits the result of her pregnancy test. As the minutes tick away, her body begins to move, confront, excavate, and awaken. Dancing through the cosmic chaos this piece asks, how can we listen deeply to ourselves?
From creator/performer Erin Pettifor (Lady Be Good, Minor Pains: Prenatal Piercing and Other Pregnancy Prep) Stigma, Pistil and Style is a hilarious, poetic, physical theatre frolic.

Stupid Ed is Taiwanese-Canadian Comedian Ed Hill’s follow up show to his critically acclaimed comedy special, Candy & Smiley, on Amazon Prime.
Stupid Ed is intimate, insightful, and at times -- incredible. Comprised of introspections about Ed’s relationships with the female figures in his life, the show explores the values that a first-generation Taiwanese Canadian immigrant has learned from his motherland, Canada. Stupid Ed is both a heartwarming and heartbreaking story. It is a close examination on the meaning of strength, a genuine reflection on the concept of fragility, and an honest observation on what connects all of us: Love.
