A dark comedy about a cure with wicked fine print.
In this dark comedy from celebrated Canadian author Mona Awad, writer of the bestselling novels Bunny and We Love You, Bunny , magical realism takes centre stage.
After a freak onstage accident ends her promising acting career, Miranda Fitch is left in chronic pain and reduced to directing student Shakespeare productions in a struggling university’s theatre department. But when three mysterious strangers offer a magical cure to her pain, she’s pulled into a surreal journey that pushes her to the brink of sanity.
The promise of relief comes with wicked fine print in this razor-sharp comedy about ambition, pain, and power. Maev Beaty – whose work has been seen across nine seasons with the Stratford Festival, in A24’s Beau Is Afraid , and in the award-winning production Secret Life of a Mother – stars in Governor General’s Award winner Erin Shields’ adaptation.
