Let me start by saying I hope I can find the words to describe just how good this show is. I have seen a lot of shows at the Fringe. A lot of two-handers. A lot of dramas.

This play is incredible!! Kate Hellen and z Lucie Beeby are stars waiting to be discovered. Jim Hanna is one of fringes most creative writers/directors this year. Give them their flowers now and stop playing. 5 stars outta 5. Highly recommend! Go see this play. ... full review

A mystery that slowly becomes more twisted as it goes, "Trunk" features two strong performances in a darkly funny play that will leave you with a pit in your stomach as you try to figure out the deranged secrets. Can't spoil it here, so do yourself a favor and see it!... full review

This trunk is a taut puzzle box that takes one surprise turn after another. Just when you’ve figured out the next family secret, the rug is pulled to reveal an even more unexpected revelation. Two very strong performances by the actors on stage, and a bonus star-turn by their on-screen “father.”... full review

TRUNK is a high wire act for its two main players, forcing them to adjust tactics and redefine their relationship at every hard-hitting twist and turn. Some brilliant work happening here. And for any brave soul willing to confront its darker questions, there’s a treasure to be unpacked in TRUNK...... full review

TRUNK is a slow burn that pays off extremely well -- but even then, this show has incredible timing and impeccable pacing. I highly recommend you see for yourself what's inside the TRUNK.... full review
