The Exquisite Hour and Dr. Horrible Sing-along Blog (win tickets) Vancouver International Fringe Festival
Relephant Theatre is a relatively new theatre company who recently reached out to me to tell me about their two productions: The Exquisite Hour and Dr. Horrible Sing-along Blog. I have a pair of tickets for a lucky reader for each of the two productions (2 sets of 2 tickets).
A seemingly well-adjusted bachelor finds his life forever altered on a summer evening in 1962 when an alluring encyclopaedia saleswoman materializes in his backyard to make an unusual sales pitch… The next hour of real time will surprise and delight in this witty and romantic screwball comedy by Fringe favourite Stewart Lemoine.

And for another favorite, the Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog.
Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog is a live theatre production based on Joss Whedon’s popular online short film. This hilarious musical tragicomedy sees young Billy takes on the status-quo as he sets out to change the world under the guise of Dr. Horrible. Aspiring to join the infamous Evil League of Evil, Billy inadvertently introduces his nemesis, Captain Hammer, to Penny, the girl of his dreams.

Holy – you are giving away a lotta tickets! I used to work at the Fringe, and later reviewed theatre. One year I saw 30 plays.
I don’t think I can go this year due to mass toddler confusion but hopefully by next year I can get back on it!
