Choose Your Own Adventure: Comedy Edition – The Sequel – by Susan Kelsey – Produced by VV Productions
Similar to a Choose Your Own Adventure book that you might have read in your youth, this show lets the audience choose their own adventure to find out where they will end up. This is a one-person show where each performance will be unique as it is based on which ‘chapters’ the audience chooses to hear. There will be six chapters with a prop to represent each chapter. An overview of each chapter will be given while demonstrating each prop. After that, the audience is given the opportunity to vote on which chapter they want to hear. Then after the first chapter, the audience is given the opportunity to vote on which chapter they want to hear next. From the good, the bad, and the unusual aspects of travel to favourite terms of endearment the show will cover a variety of subjects through a comedic lens.
