Opening Night featuring "Shit I'm In Love With You Again" at the 2016 SOULO Theatre Festival
SOULO Festival favourite Rachelle Elie kicks off the 2016 SOULO Theatre Festival with her crowd and critic favourite "Shit I'm In Love With You Again"!
SHIT I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU AGAIN
Thursday May 26 - 8pm, with Opening Night Party to follow
Writer/Performer: Rachelle Elie
Musician: Luke Jackson
SOULO Theatre Festival audiences will remember - although they may not recognize! - Rachelle Elie as the creator/performer of "JOE: The Perfect Man", the 2014 sold out festival closer!
SHIT I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU AGAIN is an autobiographical story that is punctuated by musical interludes blending witty and captivating original tunes by Rachelle Elie and Luke Jackson with 1980's power ballads. An inspired story that gleefully articulates the kind of thoughts weve all had in our relationships but are usually reluctant to express. Costume changes reveal a new stage of life that moves us on to the next challenge.
"Elie is especially skilled at setting you up with a warm smile and an awwww-inducing story only to yank the carpet from under you." The Ottawa Citizen
"Elie's funny, insightful and mostly autobiographical show reminds us, earning the privilege of love is anything but easy." The Ottawa Citizen
"It's clear that Elie is a pro." Apartment 613, Ottawa
"It's a dynamic performance, moving easily between melancholy and exuberant, conspiratorial and defiant, precious and lewd, and it makes for a show thats well worth seeing." Capital Critics Circle
"Rachelle Elie is the consummate performer." Capital Critics Circle, Ottawa
"Rachelle Elie has incredible energy." On Stage, Ottawa
"Elie is a born performer." New Ottawa Critics Circle, New Ottawa Critics
