About Joann Condon
Little Boxes is a solo show by Joann Condon, performed at Space 2 as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Over 55 minutes, Condon takes audiences on a joyous and cathartic journey through a lifetime's worth of "boxes": the hopes and dreams of a child, the frustrations of an acting career, the tensions of being a parent, and the grief of losing loved ones. It is a story about breaking free from constraints and living life to the fullest, blending storytelling and comedy. Suitable for ages 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A deeply personal solo performance that moves between hilarity and heartbreak, this show asks what it costs to keep yourself boxed in — and what happens when you finally let go. Warm, funny, and genuinely moving.
