SUMMARY:Gabriola Theatre Centre Presents LESBIHONEST
DESCRIPTION:Laura was born to tell stories. Whether as a dancer/aerialist with Tokyo Disney\, a playwright for new Canadian musicals\, Every Silver Lining\, and Apothecary\, or her solo shows\, LESBIHONEST\, The Suicide Key\, and GO\, or as a com dienne in Footloose with Just for Laughs\, Laura's unstoppable passion in life lies in telling people all sorts of eccentric stories\, whether they want to hear them or not. Laura Piccinin recounts a lifetime of coming outs in a tell-all comedic stand-up story hour. This hilarious and sentimental autobiography reflects on a single journey that spans 3 decades of change in perceptions and treatment of Queer people. As an ex-religious gay\, Laura grapples with a shifting identity and unease in sense of self\, eventually navigating her way to Pride. "Part stand-up\, part personal storytelling\, Piccinin stands behind a mic and tells us her coming out stories. Sharply observed\, tightly delivered and finding laughter in the pain for an entertaining and insightful out and proud ride". Cate McKim\, Life with More Cowbell "Piccinin is a masterful comic with a keen sense of timing and joke structure. Within moments\, she commands the audience\, and we're happy to follow wherever she'd like to go." Aisling Murphy\, Toronto Star "Honest is an understatement. In less than an hour\, Laura Piccinin takes audiences on a slightly confusing\, consistently hilarious\, and often poignant journey of self-discovery. In a word: relatable". Jessica Watson\, Intermission Magazine
