All Our Happy Days Are Stupid

A play by Sheila Heti with songs by Dan Bejar
Directed by Jordan Tannahill
October 24 - November 3 (no performance October 28), 8pm
Video Fag 187 Augusta Ave, Toronto ON

Indie theatre company Suburban Beast is producing the long-anticpated world premiere of novelist Sheila Heti's debut play All Our Happy Days Are Stupid. The show will run from October 24 – November 3, 2013 at Videofag, director Jordan Tannahill's intimate Kensington Market storefront theatre. Featuring songs by acclaimed musician Dan Bejar (Destroyer), Set Designs by Rae Powell, and a cast of Sheila and Jordan's friends, this uproariously unwieldy new play is an irreverent and gut-punching critique of the pursuit of happiness.


The play's surreal narrative follows The Oddis and the Sings, two families on vacation in Paris, France. But far from the blissful respite they seek, their holidays become their undoing. Heti's struggle to write this infamously 'unproduceable' play over the past ten years is one of the central plot-lines in her internationally heralded novel How Should a Person Be?, which David Haglund of the New York Times called "Funny...odd, original, and nearly unclassifiable...unlike any novel I can think of."

Tickets:
$25/adults, $20/students and seniors
October 27 is Pay-What-You-Can at the door, one hour before show time.
