Last Weekend in the 'Toon! Two More Shows!

Good morning, Saskatoooooooooon!

We have a show tonight at 8 p.m. and another tomorrow at 2 p.m.! Come experience the family dissemblance at the Broadway Theatre! We'll be there - the bear's head will be there - it would be a crime to miss it!

In other news, we've had three entire days off (from the blogging too, it seems) and we've filled them full to bursting. Our three days off have been spent:

*Seeing some amazing Fringe shows, including all three UK performance poets;

*Blowing bubbles and screwing up English accents while spoofing Fringe hit The Excursionists for the Saskatoon Fringe's annual Spoof Night;

*Meeting a lovely stranger in the elevator who looked at us a little funny before saying "Heeeey - I've been reading your blogs!";

*Flyering everyone with a Fringe button and a pulse (Chris);

*Buying an incredibly trashy historical fiction novel (Rose);

*Speculating over which performer left a giant, nasty turd in the dressing room john on Tuesday afternoon (we're looking at you, Tales from the Calabash);

*Camping out at the Staples in preparation for the upcoming Edmonton Fringe (it's like Cheers over there - they know our names);

*Scarfing Slurpees; and

*Falling in love with Poofy du Vey, a clown whose show, Burden of Poof, was the highlight of the festival, even though it . . .wasn't actually PART of the festival. But it SHOULD be. 'Cause Poofy -she's something else. As Rose said last night after Poofy's show: "You know I've been away from my girlfriend for too long when even clowns are starting to look good to me."
