North Star
EdFringe was an amazing experience. I felt like Cinderella at the ball. From reviewers who said “it was an honor spending time with her” to audience members crying on my shoulder, and even the most wizened press and tech people from TheSpaceUK telling me that my show was a hit, the entire experience could not have been better or more gratifying. I am eternally grateful to everyone who helped make this dream come true. Stay tuned for what comes next!
“I started writing this show six years ago and am so pleased to finally be able to present it at TheSpaceUK during the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe. It’s been a labor of love, three years of COVID, 18 collaborators, 15 suitcases and several embarrassing injuries. I’m hopeful that this piece will give you something positive to think about, perhaps a way out of the darkness or, at the very least, a few laughs. I am deeply grateful to all my collaborators, supporters and friends who have gotten me where I am today. The world is a better place with all of you in it.“
