MORRO AND JASP
A HILARIOUS LOOK BACK AT THE BEST PERIOD OF YOUR LIFE!
The show is about two sisters going thru the day to day turmoil of a girl’s life in puberty together.
Here are a selection of photographs from the evenings performance.
It was a delightful romp thru these sister’s lives. Funny with very poignant moments.
A charming amount of audience interaction was on hand!
What is a sister without phone issues?
“This device must have been invented by a man”.
This audience member found out it has many uses.
A novel use of the sticky surface.
An innocent audience member gets subjected to the ‘makeover’.
The puberty age does have it’s consequences.
An audience member (Billy Dee Bedlam) becomes her Don Juan.
After a very trying experience discovering ‘puberty’. Whew!
The curtain call involved a friend who was involved in the production. It was his birthday!
