Top of PageWaiting for the Trigger
Synopsis:
Waiting for the Trigger, showcased in a comfortable, chic performance space at the Goethe Institute, can best be described as a madcap variety show, an unfiltered comic brainstorm ripped from the fertile imagination of writer/director/producer John Sowalsky. Described in the program as a collection of Sowalsky's random insights about the Fringe experience, the show follows two friends - sweet, impish writer Em, played by Elizabeth Heir, and sarcastic, practical producer C, played by Eternanda Fudge - as they try to craft a successful original production for the annual Edge theater festival. What follows is a parade of unpredictable, gut-busting scenes exploring various comedic relationships and situations, each drawing inspiration from a different twisted corner of Em's (and therefore Sowalsky's) wacky brain.
