Democrats at the Factory

Last summer, Chris Earle's one man show Democrats Abroad was Torontoist's favourite out of the zillions of Summerworks shows we saw in three days. Our brain came close to exploding that weekend, but fortunately it didn't, and we survived long enough to sing the praises of Chris Earle. And fortunately for all of you who missed the clever, creepy, and hilarious Democrats Abroad the first time around, you can catch the remount at the Factory Studio Theatre. Democrats Abroad speculates about what might happen should the current administration in the States grow increasingly dictatorial, forcing all liberal-minded Democrats to flee to Canada and flood our cities. Both Earle's writing and delivery are top-notch (plus he's a little dreamy, but that's neither here nor there), and you really should see the show before it closes on Feb. 5th.
