Shell is a fantastical one person show that weaves between realities and awakens a wanting you may have forgotten was there. Hockey bro Andy is leading a new sex ed club to B(reak) R(eproductive) O(ppression). The Peanut in his hockey bag is hungry for your desires. And the performer beneath it all is cracking open. Part play, part interactive workshop, part unleashing, Shell confronts us with what we know and don’t know about our bodies, their power and what happens when we truly ask for what we want.
