Donation protected
They say Edinburgh Fringe Festival is the Olympics of play festivals. So...let the games begin!!!
I (Paige) will be performing my flagship show Breakup Addict twenty-eight times at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this coming August in Edinburgh, Scotland.
28 shows in 28 days.
That's about one show for every breakup I've been through.
But I can't do it without your support!
So go ahead and support your favorite athlete (I mean actor) as I take Breakup Addict to an international audience.
Why this show?
Breakup Addict is a deeply personal account of the hard lessons I've learned through my relationship blunders. But this is not just MY story; this is OUR story. It's a story that we can all relate to in some way. Rejection, heartbreak, feeling desperately lonely on bathroom floor-- wondering why we gave away so much of ourselves for another person and where we go from here...
Breakup Addict is not just a show; it is a cathartic, healing experience for anybody who has ever had a broken heart...which is all of us.
Why Edinburgh?
Two reasons:
1. Edinburgh is the ultimate dream for any theatre performer. There is an opportunity for Breakup Addict to have a global presence, to be seen by over 2,800 people! Can you imagine what's possible from there? A tour, a TV show, a brand, international recognition. The possibilities are endless.
2. The opportunity to perform my show in front of an audience every single day for 28 days will take my artistry to another level. I get to know my show and my characters better and better each time I perform, developing an intimacy with myself and my characters that will polish my skills as a performer, writer, and coach.
"Every story of her journey is brilliantly told in captivating and uplifting words. She is captivating. Open, honest, sweet and thoughtful. She guides us through her revelations with her wicked wit and her hard-fought wisdom. Breakup Addict is a brilliant solo play." -Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros, NoHo Arts District
