A lonely housewife burns with uncontrollable passion for her stepson, to tragic results. In the 2024 McGill Classics Play, the captivating allure of 1950s melodrama sets the stage for Seneca's immortal tragedy, Phaedra. Set amidst the decadence of a bygone era, this production unveils the complexities of human nature, the devastating consequences of yielding to irresistible impulses, and the tragic interplay between nature and passion.

Meltdowns, diagrams, textures, vampires... what is it like to be autistic? And is it possible to convey that experience to others? There's only one way to find out: by trying, for better or for worse.
Told in the style of Fleabag with an early 2000’s pop-punk soundtrack, this award-winning playwright’s one-woman comedy follows party-girl Candace as she runs away to Mexico for her best friend's destination wedding.
