A couple’s rocky domestic life takes a turn when a shocking secret comes to light. What secret? You decide! Part physical theatre, part improv comedy, each performance of TILT is different as a prompt from the audience sends the story – and performers – into an improvised tailspin!
Written and performed by Jean-Michel Cliche and Alex Rioux, with live technical improv by stage manager Georgia Brown.
Festival OPENING NIGHT PARTY to follow July 24th performance of TILT (starting approximately 8:45 PM) at The Grad House, 676 Windsor Street (free, all welcome!)

Crane Girl by Alexa Higgins
Saturday August 2 at 7:30 PM and Sunday August 3 at 2 PM and 7:30 PM. Memorial Hall, UNB, 9 Bailey Drive.
Tickets: $20 General; $15 Students/Seniors/Underemployed, available at the door.
Inspired by a real event, Crane Girl is a fictionalized exploration of what might cause a woman with no training, experience, or equipment to climb a crane. Jane, a young married woman who suddenly finds herself feeling untethered, can see no way out of the cage she has built around herself until she realizes she shouldn’t be looking for a way out, but rather, up. As Jane continues her thrilling ascent, she comes face to face with the very people and the past she is trying to climb away from. Crane Girl explores rage, women’s bodies, reproductive rights, and what it means to find your voice in a patriarchal nightmare. And it’s funny! Plus, the real kicker? The titular Crane Girl won’t touch the ground until curtain!
Written by Alexa Higgins and performed by Ian Ottis Goff, Katherine Cappellacci, and Alexa Higgins.
