We saw two plays today. Yay! And one of them was even free! Yay some more! We were walking around with our Fringe program in our hands when two guys came and offered us tickets to their show, "Journey to the Center of a Doughnut" for free. Since that was right neighbourly of them we took them up on it, and enjoyed a funny, possibly philosophical but more likely just nonsensical romp involving doughnuts, nothingness and lots of crazy characters.
Also we saw The Breast Show, created by and starring Bridget Ryan and Shannon Tyler, two well-known Edmonton media personalities, and it was excellent. Both a hilarious musical and a touching tribute to women who have or have had breast cancer, it is definitely aimed at women but I found it highly enjoyable, so all you bears (and men) will enjoy it too. A portion of all tickets sold goes to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
Oh yeah, and a festival I forgot to mention yesterday that is coming up Labour Day long weekend is the Edmonton Tattoo Festival. Make sure your speakers are turned down low before you click!
