Monks

Annie Luján and Veronica Hortigüela • Professional company

60 minutes•Lime Studio
Falala, brothers! Join two medieval monks (modest!) on the quest of a lifetime (brave!) in this sacredly-stupid interactive clown epic. For the lentils are many, the donkey is happy and the Abbott won’t be back for hours. When two medieval brothers are left home alone they fling open the monastery doors and invite a wagonload of strangers to join them for a full day of doing nothing... What could go wrong? Ahhhhh! ‘Sublime’ ***** (NextMag.ca), ‘These clowns are gifts from God’ ***** (MyGayToronto.com), ‘Wickedly funny and surprisingly poignant’ (TheGlobeandMail.com), ‘Canada’s Best New Work’ (Toronto Theatre Critic’s Awards).
