Couch Surfing

Love So Far Poster - 1200x675.PNG

How much fun can two people have on a couch? That depends, especially when one of them is a writer, or thinks they are. In this metatheatrical sketch show Nadia and Vincent are two characters, a playwright and a muse, both writing competing scenes around a single second-hand sofa, each thinking they are the one in charge of the other. From the perils of working at home to the irresistible pull of Saturday morning cartoons no topic is off the… Chesterfield, however ridiculous. The competition is intense, and while neither is willing to stoop so low as to sabotage the other’s scene neither is willing to concede defeat, even for a moment. But of course, they’re also in love with each other, or maybe just their idea of each other, and lucky for us we can see that, even if they can’t, which makes their antics cute instead of depressing. That being said, can the play (and their relationship) last longer than the furniture? Come and find out!

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.
