I love musicals, all sorts, but they’re tricky to get right. If anything is off—poor pacing, a dip in energy, if you just don’t like the songs—everything falls completely apart. The illusion is shattered and you’re left with an awkward, embarrassing spectacle. There are bunch of musicals at the Toronto Fringe this year. I’m seeing a few of them and—not gonna lie—I’m nervous.
I saw my first one: Clitoria: A Sex-Positive Superhero! And let me say: IT GETS EVERYTHING RIGHT! AND IT’S AWESOME!
