Lyla is left bewildered when her best friend and roommate, Jay, suddenly decides to pack up and leave the province without an explanation. The night before they’re set to move out, two strangers with tornado-like personalities show up at their door, ready to move into their new home. Between phone calls to an irresponsible landlord, a kitchen fire, and an accidental unveiling of secrets, these pairs of strangers begin to unpack a kindredness towards each other, realising they are not as alone in their struggles as they thought.
Stephanie Alexandre (she/her) is a hockey player-turned-theatre-nerd. As a recent graduate from the University of Calgary with a degree in English in Drama, she is passionate about storytelling in all its forms— whether through music, on the page, stage, or over a cup of tea and some good conversation.
Keith Boniol (he/him) is a queer Filipinx artist who is studying theatre at the University of Calgary. He loves to mix movement and dance with his passion for theatre. Keith is also passionate about exploring stories from marginalized communities. Keith wants to thank his family, who are super supportive in his dream as a theatre maker, and believed in him whenever he wasn't so sure of himself.
