Heart Ripped Out Twice And So Can You!

Linnea Bond—MTC Up the Alley

Magnificent and Memorable! This beautiful, thoughtful, moving gem is my Fringe favourite so far and I’m telling everyone to go!

Linnea Bond pulled me in from moment one and held me rapt to her tearful last words. She was actually crying with her joy of being here. I was too.

Her props were exquisite, she made the whole stage hers and she owned every inch with her dancers lithe body and riveting script. Her concerns were my concerns. I’ve often thought of the ‘hot, hot, hot’ world my grandchildren have inherited. Her astute analysis of the sorry state of the world today, especially the US, were the exact thoughts I hold. This work was so intelligent, thoughtful and just plain theatre perfection. There’s so much to this show but I don’t want to give it away. I want you to experience this masterpiece for yourself. My one small criticism is I didn’t think her song to her baby at the end added anything to an already 75 minute show. No one would sing those words to an infant.

Brava Linnea!
