TERRIBLE FISH, a one-woman play by acclaimed Montreal writer and performer, Caitlin Murphy, is heading to Halifax and St. John's this September!

"Terrible Fish" is a play about the gut-punch of mid-life.  It's feminist, it's funny, it's feisty.  And it's already been performed to great reviews in Toronto and Montreal.  In September 2026, Caitlin, with side-kick and stage manager extraordinaire, Niki Kemeny, will travel to Halifax, NS for a stint at the Fringe, and then swim on to St. John's, NFLD for a quick two-night run there.  That's flights and food and accommodations and lots of other "ands."

"Terrible Fish" has really resonated with people.  My favourite response we ever got to the show was from a theatre-practitioner in Montreal who said:  "Thank you for saying these things in public."  And Ilana Lucas, from Intermission Magazine in Toronto, wrote that "Murphy's message should be heard by everyone."  

Look.  The world is shit.  Everything is expensive and made of garbage.  I feel it, and you do too.  Anything you can spare is hugely appreciated.  Why art, why now?  Heck, I'm not really sure anymore.  But this is what I do:  figure out how to say things that matter in ways that people might need to hear.  It's not a huge offering, but it's what I've got.  And real people coming together in real  places is something I'd like to see a lot more of in this world.   We need to be reminded that we can still build fires to gather around.  

Please help us build one in Halifax and St. John's!  :) 

THANK YOU!!
