Encore Presents: Johnny Legdick - A Rock Opera
Playwright Hero
Tickets: https://montrealfringe.online.red61.ca/event/2030:383/
Cursed with a third leg, Johnny Legdick was sold to the circus by his parents and forced to live out his life in misery. But upon finding his true love (who is similarly disfigured), he decides to do what no freak has ever done before at Suckadecocka circus… escape.
It will have been 10 years to the day that this wacky musical debuted in the MiniMain to an oversold run. We are thrilled to be back, this time in the MainSpace as part of Encore. We're SO excited in fact, that the show even has a NEW SONG to commemorate the occasion.
The freaks will rise!

"Tango in fusion est une œuvre qui combine l’art du tango avec différents styles de danse. Ceux-ci permettent de visualiser par le mouvement et la dramaturgie, certains conflits socioculturels et émotionnels auxquels nous sommes tous confrontés.
Les artistes de tango in fusion s’expriment à travers d’histoires personnelles une extase de la danse du tango dans son essence. Ce qui permet aussi avec la diversité des autres types de mouvements et musique. une connexion avec le spectateur afin de visualiser et briser différents stéréotypes socioculturels."
Told in the style of Fleabag with an early 2000’s pop-punk soundtrack, this award-winning playwright’s one-woman comedy follows party-girl Candace as she runs away to Mexico for her best friend's destination wedding. A karaoke bar, dead goldfish, and a spirited adventure. You won't have regrets... but Candace might.
