Laughter goes a long way to keeping the insanity of the season in check. Here we have today's suggestion for our ongoing Christmas Countdown.
Today: T-minus-12 days!
Tonight, take a laugh break with the Way Off-Broadway Wednesdays series at New Westminster’s Heritage Grill.
The series brings fringe festival favourites to the stage every Wednesday night on a by-donation basis.
On Wednesday, Dec. 13, audiences can find Burnaby actor Katie Purych starring in Hullaboo and the End of Everything, alongside Andrew Wade.
Audiences may remember Katie from appearances in Align Entertainment’s musicals at the Michael J. Fox Theatre, as she was part of The Addams Family, Shrek and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. She also appeared in Anything Goes and Annie with Royal City Musical Theatre in New Westminster.
In this new show – which was described by the Saskatoon Star Phoenix as “a Pixar movie at the Fringe” – Purych is Mikaila, a young girl who may or may not still need the companionship of her imaginary friend Hullaboo.
It’s on in the Heritage Grill’s backroom starting at 7:30 p.m. You can reserve a table at 604-759-0819 or just drop in.
