september 22: "emergency monologues" to benefit war resisters support campaign

On Tuesday, September 22, join the War Resisters Support Campaign for a special performance of "The Emergency Monologues". This one-man show was a big hit during the recent Toronto Fringe Festival. I've heard it's very funny, very dark, and very good.

Tickets are $20, or $10 with valid student ID. There'll be a cash bar, and all proceeds will go to the War Resisters Support Campaign, for legal and other emergency expenses.

MORGAN JONES PHILLIPS presents:

THE EMERGENCY MONOLOGUES: Tales of the bizarre, ridiculous and irksome side of being a paramedic in an unidentified urban city

"Phillips neatly mixes humour and personal commentary with some dead-serious topics. He's a charming storyteller and knows how to improvise if the occasion arises, though the material would probably work better over a few shared drinks than in the theatre." -Jon Kaplan (NOW Magazine)

"If you've ever heard a siren in the night and wondered where it was going, The Emergency Monologues is your answer... Fascinating, gruesome, and laugh-out-loud funny." -Chris Earle (Second City)

WHEN: Tuesday, September 22, 8:00 p.m. / Doors open 7:00 p.m.

WHERE: The Steelworkers Union Hall, 25 Cecil Street, Toronto (parking available)

HOW MUCH: $20 or $10.00 with valid student ID

WHY: LET THEM STAY!
