About the Show

Part of FringeNYC: A writer learns: Freedom is a Bitch. Seeking meaning, he leaves his family, career and...gets mugged by geese. Struggles with homelessness, loss, love and the 1%. After years of searching: is there redemption?

Riveting, Great acting, Great writing, Great direction, Profound

See it if you enjoy seeing a single actor masterfully create an entire world with no set and virtually no props.

Don't see it if the story of a man's life, turning out very different from what he'd expected, does not appeal to you.

Ambitious, Great acting, Profound

See it if you like a great story about hope and failure. About winning but still losing. About recognition but not getting what you deserve. Survival.

Don't see it if you really want to see some geese.

"There is nothing limiting about a show that tells the story of one very specific struggle through life. 'Canada Geese' shines best in its details and commitment. It also asks important questions; in our contemporary moment of political turmoil and social upheaval, the question of what freedom actually looks like is a valuable inquiry. However, the play's most transcendent moments are when it touches upon the true weight we carry—love."
