Windows, Walls and Doors

Cupcakes

A cupcake franchise, marriage and a limo ride to the airport. What do you do when panic hits? Where are the “self-help” books on crumbling marriages, crumbling egos and crumbly pastry?

Who do you talk to when you feel crummy? Take a limo ride to the airport with Lisa and Shlomo, two very different entrepreneurs who don’t see life, marriage or business from the same seat. You can’t go through a wall or a window, you have to open the door…

Windows, Walls and Doors was performed at St. Vladimir’s Theatre (620 Spadina Avenue) as part of the 2007 Toronto Fringe Festival.

Personnel: Yael Sirlin (playwright), Dennie Theodore (director), Debra Hale (Lisa/Nurit), Shaun Clarke (Shlomo/Josh), Hillari Blumfald (stage manager), Tom Rush (producer).
