WINNER at Ottawa Fringe 2025:
“Best of Fest” (Arts Court Theatre)
It was meant to be a simple night at the theatre, but with a dame, a detective, and a dastardly criminal, it’s anything but! Can they dodge leading ladies, opera ghosts, and the wrath of scorned techies in time to catch a killer?
More importantly, can they snag that coveted Gumshoe of the Year Award? Film noir gets taken for a farcical spin, and it may never be the same again.
