2026 Company
Our 2026 run at the Kingston Fringe Festival was our World Premiere, and ended with over-sold performances and standing ovations. Each of these actors were exceptionally talented, and worked hard to bring out the best from each other. They originated the roles they played, and their ideas and perspectives made the piece stronger.
