Blind Date
International hit-show returning to Tarragon
Created by Rebecca Northan
Canadian Comedy Award-winner Rebecca Northan's popular hit show returns to the Tarragon after critically acclaimed runs in New York, London's West End and across Canada, including a sold-out run here at Tarragon Theatre last September. When Mimi's date for the evening fails to show up, she turns to the audience for someone brave enough to answer Love's call. What happens next is anybody's guess, and different each night. This unscripted, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants adventure is one saucy, daring and entertaining evening out.
Tickets are now on sale for Tarragon Subscribers - click the link to purchase or call 416-531-1827.
“Funny and spontaneous, but also genuinely adorable. Blind Date conjures up all the heart-mushrooming glee of a brand-new romance, even as it gently lampoons sexual politics and courtship anxieties…. Mimi's definitely a keeper.” – J. Kelly Nestruck, The Globe and Mail
“Do you believe in love at first sight? I do, because I once spent 90 minutes under the spell of Rebecca Northan…A flight of theatrical fancy that is absolutely magical.” – Richard Ouzounian, Toronto Star
“It’s one thing to bring audience members onstage for three minutes of mockery, then sit them back down again. It’s quite another to play opposite a stranger who’s not a professional actor for more than an hour. That’s what Ms. Northan fearlessly does, and it’s very funny.” – Neil Genzlinger, The New York Times
