About this show

POV: you and hubby are fresh off the altar, driving to your Niagara Falls honeymoon, sipping on your fave bevvy. It's the middle of the night and you haven't had service for miles, but it's okay – you're drunk off the bliss of married life! Or... trying to be? Out of nowhere, your drink is in your lap, and the car is in a ditch. Shit, what (or who) did he just hit?? A dark comedy about where the mind takes us when faced with the questions we never wanted to answer.

  • As a piece of queer theatre, however, it’s well presented and intelligently written, with a distinctive premise and plenty of potential.

    Pure life plus. (3 out of 5 stars)

  • Fringe has developed and changed a lot over the last several years, and often it is easy to forget the origins of what the Fringe was and how it started.

    Corr Blimey

  • Presented by New York company Ur Mean Kathleen, this dark comedy is a successful EC Comics style horror crime fable.

    Fernyhough Arts Reveiw (4 out of 5 stars)
