C'mon Angie
In the pre-dawn hours following a one-night stand, Angie and Reed spend a fraught morning confronting questions related to intimacy, consent, and sexual assault. As the two characters uncover the truth of what happened the night before, a major gap between their understanding of the situation - and the meaning of consent - is revealed. Told with humour, heart, and unflinching honestly, C'MON ANGIE! dramatizes a difficult and all-too familiar situation, resulting in what the Vancouver Sun calls, "a thoughtful and provocative contribution to cone of the most compelling issues of our time."
