Olivia Latta, Co-creator and Director of Adopted, took some time to answer my Fringe Preview Questionnaire about the show! Enjoy!
Describe your Fringe show in 10 words or less. Like a rural Albertan "This Is Us", with more ketchup.
Now the longer description... what else should people know about it? Adopted is a one-man storytelling show about the realities of being adopted. What makes a family? Is blood really thicker than water? And who are my parents anyways? Equal parts hilarious and heart-wrenching, Adopted explores serious themes about childhood and family, and a love of ketchup.
What makes Adopted a great choice for the Fringe? You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll definitely want to go for hotdogs. Oh, and remember MSN messenger and all the pop-punk bands you used to listen to in Junior High. Well get ready, cause we'll be bringing you back to those awkward days. Also, this will be the perfect show to bring your dad to, trust us.
Okay, you're in rehearsal with an amazing group of people...
a. Who makes you laugh the most? Adam
b. Who makes you groan? Also, Adam.
c. Who is most likely to give you a massage? Gino, my family's cocker spaniel who will sometimes watch the show, sometimes run into your lap, and almost always steal the end of the show by barking at absolutely nothing.
The Official Description: Adopted is a one-man storytelling show about the realities of being adopted. What makes a family? Is blood really thicker than water? And, most importantly, who are my parents anyway? Both hilarious and heart-wrenching, Adopted explores serious themes about childhood and family through both drama and comedy. Minors welcome to shows starting before 9pm.
