Description

Suffocated by pop-culture stereotypes and dreamy ideals, Comic Book Café baristas Nessa and Carly bemoan their idealized counterparts. Most hated is the Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Then one walks in. ...

Nessa and Carly are a two-women girl gang, who makes a mean macchiato - useful at the comic book cafe where they work. Surrounded by books full of dreamy ideals, where co-workers and customers mistake smiles for flirting our girls bemoan their comic book counterparts. Most hated is the Manic Pixie Dream Girl.

Then one walks in. Surely she cannot be real and must be investigated.

"This performance is cute. It's passionate. It's intense. And raw. When actors are enthusiastic and in love with a script, you can tell. A lovely intimate piece" ???? Fringefeed, 2020

"A female quest of self-discovery amid escapism and insecurity... ...Manic Pixie Dream Girl is a clever and multi-layered show. It's a reflection of the human experience with hints of quantum fiction" ???? Pelican Magazine, 2020 Presented by: Evening Productions
