“The performances are very good…the choreography is impressive…well thought out movements helps develop the relationship between the two characters, even where dialogue is lacking. With singing, dancing and DIY props this is an entertaining 50 minutes…” – THREE WEEKS EDINBURGH (full review)

“In the clown-inspired performances that use the full expressive palette of the actors, there is a playfulness at the centre of the relationship, even at its most acrimonious. This playfulness extends to the production itself, which relishes the visual potential of the theatre: the ocean scenes are a real treat…the characters are brought to vivid, charming life throughout.” -THE LIST (full review)

* Why the odd start time? We will be performing this play for a 3-week run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August.  All 313 venues at the Fringe will have a steady rotation of shows running all day, every day. We have a limited time in the venue each night to get the show set up, performed, and packed away, and this part needs to be staged and rehearsed with everything else. We will be ending our week of technical rehearsals at PVCC with these performances and running them just like they will be in Edinburgh. A super quick set up, 6:40pm performance time, 50 minute running time, and a super quick load out.

We would love to see your face before we go!

Thank you for all your support,

-Siân and Kara

We are thrilled to announce that Pip and Twig have set their sights on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe! Sian and Kara will be packing up and heading over to the WORLD’S BIGGEST ARTS FESTIVAL for a 3-week run of their original play The Convolution of Pip and Twig this August.  Hamner Theater is once again presenting the show as the umbrella organization and Matt Joslyn is joining the adventure as co-producer. We will update you on upcoming performance information on both sides of the ocean, and keep you updated on the progress of our crack Fringe team!  (photo by Will Kerner)

But wait, there’s more exciting news: Jennifer has begun rehearsals for NO WAKE, an original site-specific performance and community collaboration that is the culmination of her Public Artist residency at the Bridge PAI. NO WAKE is an adaptation of Jennifer’s play of the same title. She is collaborating with PEP members Sian on actor training and Martha on script adaptation. The performances will take place in downtown Charlottesville, VA, from March 17 to April 16, 2016. More details to come! (photo by Lisa Eller: Sydney Wynn and Deandra Irving in rehearsal)
