We wanted to take a quick moment in the midst of our preparations for next month’s Simian Showcase for a very exciting announcement – you’re going to see Monkeyman Productions this summer in the Toronto Fringe Festival!
It’s going to be an interesting one both for the company and our fans, as we participate in the Fringe’s new AlleyPlays program. We’ll be creating a production that can fit into the most intimate of spaces while still giving you all the geek-friendly energy, jokes, heart, and energy you’ve come to expect from our shows.
And what is the show going to be about? D.J. Sylvis and Friend-of-Monkey Manda Whitney are creating a collection of short pieces about the video gaming experience that we’ll be calling, Headshots and Healing Potions. We’re still in the alpha stage of putting the pieces together, but the show is going to touch on a plethora of aspects of gamer culture, both old-school and up to the minute. It’ll be theatre that leaves you with bits in your eyes.
So keep your schedule open for July 4th-15th, stuff your pockets full of quarters, and watch this site for more details as we’ve got them to share. We’ll all level up together!
