ECPD: Rhetoric, Blood and CRIME is coming to Ottawa pride 2025 as part of Queered- A Mini Fest!
This Time Longer and Un-Cut!
Including deleted scenes, extended monologues and more puppet on puppet combat!
Two time Queer Jury Choice (Ottawa Fringe), and Outstanding Queer Ensemble FringeReview.co.uk (Orlando Fringe)!
From the award winning team of V+V and Foul Play comes something dark, gritty and stuffed with puppets. Mark Hamlet is a damn good Detective with demons in his past, but when his partner is killed it’s time to find the culprit fast. Filled with thrilling twists, felted murder and the plot of Hamlet, this show is emotional roulette.
Don’t be fooled by the stuffing. It's cuffing season Ottawa. Handcuffing.
