THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7

ASMRLAND, A Pink Door/Alma Matters Productions

Bell Angele has a simple quest: to fall asleep peacefully. But before she can, two fairies from ASMRland are here to reveal and repair the dark corners of her brain. ASMRtist uses Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response to bring audiences together to explore the stimuli that make our skin tingle and our minds race.

At the Helen Gardiner Phelan Playhouse, closes September 16

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8

MOCKINGBIRD CLOSE, INpulse Theatre

The parents take to the street, hoping for answers from their eccentric, disturbed neighbours. The neighbours are not forthcoming, and instead reveal dark, buried secrets—the things that happen behind closed doors. Meanwhile, “the witch” waits “at the dark black mouth that is the entrance to Mockingbird Close.”

At Red Sandcastle Theatre, closes September 16

MIDDLETOWN, Shaw Festival

In the most average town in North America, a group of average people are living average lives of quiet desperation. And yet somehow, in the midst of all this isolation, the most basic human urge persists: the desire to matter to someone else.
