Pamela Bethel

Despite risking death by embarrassment, Pamela presses play on recordings from the answering machine she had as a 1990s teen. Part confessional, part show-and-tell, the voices - from BFFs to wrong numbers - tell the story of an under-supervised over-achiever.

Norman Hussey

It's opening night and the dressing room isn’t big enough to contain all the egos. Tensions are high as long-standing grudges come to a head and the cast and crew become aware of their role in it all. What Fringe experience would be complete without a pretentious tale of comedy, romance, and the triumph of the human spirit?

Eric Andrews takes his audience on a funny bizarre and sort of sad journey into his eclectic world using the forms of communication that shaped the person he has become.
