A thoroughly enjoyable story about friendship, how it changes, what goes unsaid and how as we grow older, those friendships change, sometimes without explanation. We often see stories about relationships that break up, but the friendships we lose along the way are often just as heartbreaking and Gabriel's story highlights that difficult in a very relatable way.... full review

Such an eloquent and emotional script that I could see performed in university theatre departments right now (I'm a theatre educator so please know I mean this as a compliment)! It's a perfect character study that gives its actors a range of emotions and connections to explore. A touching study of friendship and the ways in which we drift apart. ... full review

LOVED IT! You know when you sit down at a play that is hyped as funny, yet you feel hopelessly certain you're about to wince at whatever easy jokes are hurled your way? I experience that a lot at plays, but I didn't at this one, because even before it started I knew it would be hilarious thanks to its cast, who deftly juggle quick and not uncomplicated dialogue with slapstick antics against a marvelously hectic background (unsurprisingly these actors are scholars in the practice of clowning).... full review

One of my favorite clown shows ever! CVNT entertains, confronts and educates in the most playful way. Sophie was mesmerizing as a life-sized ... can I say that word in a review? Funny, kind, hilarious, weird, powerful and celebratory! The word outside the US is common, but in America it's rather stigmatized and love how this show celebrates the word in all its meanings.... full review

This show has been a highlight of the festival for me! I felt fully immersed in Dean's absurd and magical world without any elaborate set pieces or any of us needing to leave our seats. It was equally funny and wondrous. To use a cliche, it really was a masterclass in clown craft. I'll be thinking about it for awhile!... full review

This show blew me away! Dean is one of the most precise yet effortless performers I've ever seen. The stunning combination of perfect physicality, dry vulnerability, and surreal storytelling resulted in a one-of-a-kind show that I'll think upon for years to come.... full review

What a hoot! This show is funny, fresh, and an overall good time! The cast is hilarious, the jokes are hysterical, and the musical numbers are cute and fun. The show is cleverly written and its gender swapped premise is used to great effect. The jokes provide an excellent and modern insight to dating and emotional growth.... full review

Nun Slut was pure magic! I laughed the entire way through. Claire Robin is masterful at engaging with the audience in a way that is simultaneously bold and consensual - an amazing balancing act that she pulls off with seeming ease. I will never look at grapes the same way again! Such a fun show!... full review
