“One of the most impressive online shows I’ve seen from anyone anywhere in the world since the lockdown.”

The revolutionary show that brought us all joy and inspiration in tough times last Fall is back! Welcome back the cast of wild and wacky characters from the Craigslist community as they attempt to buy and sell online, all the while longing and searching for human connection.

Revisit one of the most popular and critically acclaimed shows to come out of Vancouver in the last decade! This time with a fresh, new perspective on social isolation and live-streamed from all around The Cultch—resulting in a witty and poignant exploration of physical distancing, then and now. Featuring the original songs ‘300 Stuffed Penguins,’ ‘Chili Eating Buddy,’ ‘Decapitated Dolls,’ and more.

Returning to bring the show back to life (performing again from their individual pods) are the incredibly talented local cast: Meaghan Chenosky, Josh Epstein, Chirag Naik, Amanda Sum, and Andrew Wheeler.

“While the show’s lyrics have been updated in certain places to reflect our current physically distanced times, it’s the form of this new production that makes it truly a product of now...Gladstone’s direction of the show/livestream is simple but ingenious”
–J. KELLY NESTRUCKTHE GLOBE AND MAIL
“The show itself, under the direction once again of Amiel Gladstone, is clever and funny and sad and may have you misting up by the last refrain, ‘Did someone see me today? Did someone see me today?’ The exquisite thing about this show, written by Richardson, Hille and Gladstone, is its slow burn.”
–JO LEDINGHAM
“They don’t break the fourth wall but rather break through the constraints of virtual performance and the impersonal nature of digital platforms to reach us, at home in our own boxes, with their humanity and humour.”
–GAIL JOHNSONSTIR VANCOUVER
