HEART & SOLE
Written and Performed by Lynn Ferguson

February 11-12, 2011 @ 7:30 PM

"...a stunning performance that is both brashly funny and heartbreaking."
-Scotland on Sunday

Heart & Sole is the story of Carol, an elementary school teacher in Scotland, who falls in love with David, a fish living in a tank at the local aquarium. From this absurd idea, Ferguson has spun a warmly twisted drama asking the question "can you love someone and not be like them?" Her talent for embodying vibrant personalities allows her to switch between three characters effortlessly. Helping to illustrate Carol's dilemma, we meet her friend Elaine, a brassy housewife, and Sacha, a possibly cultish fish fanatic.


"She left the audience quite literally not knowing whether to laugh or cry."
-The Times, London
