Show description

High society tea crumbles into a display of primal instincts as nine women, painted an eerie chalk white, unravel their raw intuition.  Pretty Little Instincts premiered at the Victoria Fringe and toured to Fort York for the SummerWorks Festival National Series in Toronto 2010.

PRESS

 
Provocative and engaging—and, at times, wonderfully silly—Pretty Little Instincts is the kind of experience you’ll talk about for years to come.
— John Threfall, Monday Magazine
★ ★ ★ ★ ½
A true winner, luxuriously mixing the natural ambiance with the movement of high society ghosts. . . a haunting work that destructs the folly of conformity in a rigid society.
— James Roxby, PLANK Magazine
