Good Things To Do is a good thing to do

by | Apr 26, 2020 | Review | 0 comments


Friends, do yourselves a favour and get tickets for the remaining online performances of Good Things To Do from Rumble Theatre. They’re only five bucks at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rumble-presents-good-things-to-do-tickets-102448897410
There are three more shows tonight and Rumble has extended the run to next weekend, April 30 to May 2. (NOW NEXT WEEKEND TOO.)
Good Things To Do is an excellent example of a local theatre company adapting to available media.
I took in the participatory performance last night. I don’t want to give too much away, but I will say that Good Things To Do offers a welcome asylum of tenderness.
Christine Quintana is the core creator of the poetic, dreamlike script. It gets a tiny bit cloying and repetitive, but it is unfailingly gentle — and it’s elemental and sincere, so it pays off. When it was done, I had a good ol’ cathartic sob.
I also want to thank Molly MacKinnon and Mishelle Cutler for the collaboration on the project, which includes liquid sound and music designs.
Book now. Space is limited. Feel free to share this post.
