ABOUT THE SHOW

* * * *

- EYE WEEKLY


"OUTSTANDING PRODUCTION, OUTSTANDING ENSEMBLE" (NNNN)

- NOW Magazine


"Highly Recommended"

- Toronto Star


"Sharply performed and directed, the production is a model for a successful Fringe show."

- NOW Magazine


"David Matheson's wonderfully off-kilter staging...is vividly executed by three astute and gifted performers"

- twisitheatreblog.com


"funny, perplexing and highlights the inherent absurdity of human relationships better than any other theatre"

- Mooney on Theatre


In a crumbling prewar apartment building, Babette is writing her masterpiece. Theo is composing his symphony. Frank is practicing his tongue twisters. Welcome to New York.


Thrown together by a mutual friend/lover/loan shark, Babette, Theo, and Frank struggle to make sense of a world that is threatening to pass them by. Eviction notices, randy octogenarians, sparring couples, and flying toast collide in Obie-winner Melissa James Gibson’s mordantly funny and unexpectedly moving snapshot of urban life.

[sic] is directed by David Matheson (
Bluebeard – Fringe Patrons’ Pick) and features Fringe veterans Rob Bird (The Rake’s Progress – Next Stage Festival), Sarah Dineen (Rule of Thumb – NOW Magazine Best Ensemble), and Daniel Krolik (In Trousers – NOW Magazine Artist to Watch).

"a verbally dexterous and neurotically wise comedy...the most alluring new play to open in New York this season." - The New York Times

GLAM-A-SUCCESS!

Thank you to everyone who attended and was involved with our 24hr GLAM-A-THON fundraising event on May 7 & 8. All of our photo shoots were completely SOLD OUT and we are very grateful for all of your support. The response we received was more than we could have ever imagined.

Within the coming month we are looking forward to holding a gallery show which will showcase the photos from the event. This will be an awesome opportunity to see all the incredible work that was done over the full 24hrs. If you modeled for the event this will also be a chance for you to pick up your prints. More information to come at a later date.
