Why we picked it

What happens when a girl with bad boyfriends, a messy family, and a knack for self-sabotage faces a life-altering disability? This August, storyteller Karin Fekko finishes her cross-country Fringe Theatre Tour in Toronto ... and finally performs in her hometown! Drawing from 21 years of living with multiple sclerosis, Fekko brings her signature dark, playful, and deeply honest performance style to a 60-minute solo show that seamlessly interweaves tragedy and hilarity. This much-anticipated follow-up to her 5-star hit Multiple Neurosis is an action-packed, vulnerable ride through breakups, love bombs, pregnancy, family estrangement, and bad credit. Ultimately, Fekko invites audiences into a raw, humorous fight for independence, asking a vital question: What does freedom look like when you have a disability? Please note that shows on August 21 and 22 are filmed. If you do not want to appear on camera, please attend the August 18 show.</
