"Just in time for the holiday season (and the holiday blues), The Hungriest Woman in the World by is a curious navigation of futility and meaning fuelled by a woman who inadvertently escapes from the confused loneliness of her real life into an audacious, seductive world of theatre and art. The production follows Aimee, who goes to see a play alone when her husband Rob refuses to join her. Her evening at the theatre tumbles into absurdity with dancing octopuses, overly intimate strangers and drunken mistakes. Both tender and hilarious, this play invites audiences to share— as Aimee says— a "secret in the theatre” that will sit with them long after the curtain drops."
