Joanie is exuberant and sensitive with a heart of pure gold, who struggles with the heat, the rainy season, and a few wayward chimps as she attempts to impress a very reticent Jane Goodall. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Perry plays a wide range of characters, most of them in different accents, with absolute precision. The characters are beautifully well developed and spring into life with nuance, humour and definitive clarity. One of the most beautiful moments in the play is an interaction between Joanie and Koa, the sweet man who guards against poachers, as he offers her local coffee and jokes with her with perfect awkwardness. This interaction is so intimate and subtle that it is unbelievable that both characters are played by a single actor. Perry\u2019s Jane Goodall is also especially proficient. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">There are a few musical interludes where Perry sings, as Joanie, as her bighearted emotions swell beyond the breadth of spoken words. Perry\u2019s singing voice soars sweetly and with gusto, endearing Joanie even more ardently into the depths of the hearts of her audience. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">In all, this musical play is filled with comedic panache, high energy and a beautiful story about a girl who meets genuine challenges with intelligence, creativity and positivity, and falls in love with her awesome career. There is nothing more empowering than that. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Go see this show and cheer for Joanie; you\u2019ll feel better about the state of Canadian Theatre once you\u2019ve seen it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">TWISI FRINGE RATING:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.twisitheatreblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/5_Star_Rating_System_5_stars2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2528\" src=\"https:\/\/www.twisitheatreblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/5_Star_Rating_System_5_stars2.png\" alt=\"5_Star_Rating_System_5_stars\" width=\"140\" height=\"25\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Adventures of a Redheaded Coffeeshop Girl<\/em> plays at the Annex Theatre (736 Bathurst Street) at the following times:<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>show times<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>July 05 at 05:45 PM \u00a0<a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/tff.tickets.red61.com\/listprices.php?performanceId=1066:1612\">buy tickets<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>July 06 at 08:30 PM \u00a0<a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/tff.tickets.red61.com\/listprices.php?performanceId=1066:1613\">buy tickets<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>July 07 at 12:30 PM \u00a0<a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/tff.tickets.red61.com\/listprices.php?performanceId=1066:1614\">buy tickets<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>July 08 at 11:00 PM \u00a0<a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/tff.tickets.red61.com\/listprices.php?performanceId=1066:1615\">buy tickets<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>July 12 at 05:45 PM \u00a0<a class=\"button small\" href=\"https:\/\/tff.tickets.red61.com\/listprices.php?performanceId=1066:1616\">buy tickets<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Rebecca is taking her prequel show <em>Confessions of a Redheaded Coffeeshop Girl<\/em> to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival later this summer!
