On the Road Again
Well, it was a nice break, but the Fringe, she is a harsh mistress with a soft pink underbelly. But that's neither here nor there - the point is I'm in Edmonton now, the mother of all (North American) Fringes! I'm billeted with Stan and Kyle of Apocalypse Kow, an a capella group that rocks the casbah locally. I am literally two block from my venue and the house is thriving geekopolis, strewn with bright colors, moving pictures, and more customizable card games than most people on earth would deem possible. Focus . . .
We tech in about 12 hours and open in about 40. Got to get my gameface on, and not the one I make while playing Civilization. Here's our ticket prices and schedule, for those who venture this far:
Tix General: $10.00
Call Centre Empoyees with Call Centre Photo ID: $9.00
Students / Un(der)employed: $8.00
Advanced Tickets: $13.00
Fri 19, 6:45 PM
Sat 20, 1:15 PM
Sun 21, 3:00 PM
Mon 22, 11:00 PM
Thurs 25, 7:00 PM
Fri 26, 5:15 PM
This time we're located at Venue 3 - the WestJet Stage (which is pretty appropriate) at 10433 83 Ave NW.
Come one, come all! This is the big one!

Come see my play, damn it!
"Two Guys, a Couch, and the Fate of the World"
When: Sept. 14 2 pm, Sept. 14-17 8 pm, Sept. 21-24 8 pm
Where: The Easterbrook Theatre, Building A3, 2633 Hochwald Ave. SW, Calgary, Alberta
Synopsis: Top Secret Agent Dirk Rhombus is out to save the world from a deadly weather satelliteor, rather, top Canadian agent Janet DuBois is out to save the world from a deadly virusor possibly some sort of combination. It all depends if playwrights Phil and Chris can stop bickering long enough to write the script. It's a spy comedy and a look at the writing process all in one, from non-bickering (sort of) playwrights Jason Garred and Dan Gibbins.
And for Cilantro and anyone else who needs them, directions to the theatre:
1) Take Crowchild southbound
2) Take the exit marked Flanders Avenue. This spits you out at a set of traffic lights.
3) Turn right at the lights. This takes you past a gate with a guy in a box. You don't have to say anything to the guy or pay or anything like that.
4) Turn right onto Quesnay Wood Drive. This is the second opportunity to turn right after the guy in the box.
5) a) Turn right on Dieppe Avenue. The parking lot is on the left hand side of the road a little ways down. Should you miss this,
b) Turn right on Hochwald Avenue. In this case the parking lot is on your right.
For the bus bound, if you bail off the 18 just after it leaves Crowchild in the Mount Royal area, you're basically at the "this spits you out at a set of traffic lights" part of the directions. The 13 offers more or less the same option, but you have bail off at Richardson Way -ish. I'm also told that the 40 stops right near the barracks, too.
Tickets are $10 for Students, $13 for adults, and half that on the Wednesday matinee.
