My 49th & final #FringeTO show was @ThroughBamboo , a very sweet, all ages "Through the Looking Glass" style adventure incorp. Filipino myths into a grieving granddaughter's fantasy. Clever use of moving boxes full of cheap props to enable the large ensemble's world building.
@Toronto_Fringe @IAmJoyThompson We would have loved to be a part of it but with baby due next Friday, we didn't have capacity to extend our Fringe run. We're hopeful that this isn't the end of the road for the show though. Follow us on social media @throughbamboo for news & announcements!
Another big thank you to @toronto_fringe for the platform and opportunity to reach so many people and share our stories.
