CALVIN BARROWS

dark comedy, experimental, dadaism, queer

After Calvin is knocked into a coma, his friends host a one month anniversary party...because things can always be worse!

With the discovery of his magic eight ball, disaster is bound to strike…and with Calvin’s mother bound to call at some point, it’s almost destined. This coma party is a mad mish-mash living room comedy about memory, secrets, and joy.

HELP TBD INTRODUCE CALVIN TO PHILLY FRINGE!

Throughout workshops with Theatre by Development, Amir-Gabriel Gad has written a script that quite literally takes you inside the blue void of a magic 8 ball.

TBD has assembled a stellar cast and crew of brilliant young artists, sparing no talent in curating this experience. We would like to personally invite YOU to be a part of introducing CALVIN BARROWS to the Fringe Festival by helping support our creative process.

Even one dollar can help our team get one step closer towards making a floating set piece or a sock puppet or a consumable magic 8 ball, and most importantly: help add to the compensation of those involved in the production.
