The Need To Be Valuable

Love So Far Poster - 1200x675.PNG

All our lives we’ve been taught to chase worth, value and validation. As an artist I find my responsibility is to wear my heart on my sleeve. Th show shared humanity. I however have not contributed to making the world a better place. I like many have no idea how. Journey with me to open dialogue both micro (personal) and macro (systematic) through poetry, non fiction and satire. As I aim to show you that you’re not alone in your experiences and observations.

That which is most genuine is most general.

Land Acknowledgement

The Guelph Fringe Festival will be performed on the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation of the Anishinaabek Peoples. We recognize this gathering place where we create and perform theatre is home to many past, present, and future First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. Our acknowledgement of the land is our declaration of our collective responsibility to this place and its peoples’ histories, rights, and presence. The Guelph Fringe team supports and adds our collective voice to the CALLS TO ACTION by the Truth and Reconciliation Committee on Indian Residential Schools (and other identified sites of trauma) with our commitment to never forget, to hold governments and colonial forces to account, and to seek accountability and healing for injustice.
