What do you get you put two clowns in an office with a water cooler and a bag of Cheetos? Absolute. Perfection.
Morro and Jasp's latest production, 9-5 created and performed by Heather Marie Annis and Amy Lee in their signature roles is a 'high-quality', laugh out loud night at the Factory Theatre. Your two favourite clown sisters are faced with the challenge of starting up their own business and pitching their 'product' to a group of intense and money-hungry investors. The stakes are high and there is no time for clowning around - or is there?
The entire audience had a smile on their face throughout the entire 75-minute production. The intimate set, paired with hilarious audience interaction led to an environment where everyone was comfortable to let go, relax, and enjoy the show.
Going into the production blindly, I was overwhelmingly surprised by the positive spirit, bright personalities and heart-warming storytelling. The show managed to balance charm and humour in a way that left the audience feeling inspired and loved.
If Canada doesn't know who Morro and Jasp are - they definitely will now.
