Fish Girl: Oct. 4-7
Thu, Oct 4, 2018 at 9pm
A fairy tale exploring themes of sex work through the lens of fantasy, Fish Girl tells the tale of a love struck tourist who falls into the deep end when he meets the "girl" of his dreams. She’s half fish, half girl, half real and half dream. The show includes original songs, shadow play, physical comedy, antique slide projections, and high drama. It provides a look into the hopes, dreams and fears of a sex worker and the one who loves her.
REVIEW/PRESS QUOTES
The love story is charmingly difficult, growing more beguiling as myths and realities shift.
