The Swearing Jar

Meet Carey and Simon, an otherwise-perfect married couple with a bit of a swearing problem. They're determined to kick the habit by the time their baby is born, but neither expects the hurdles that stand before them. Simon's perpetually unhappy mother is quitting smoking – again. Simon has a secret. And Carey has a new friend – a musician named Owen that she met at a bookstore. With quirky characters, music and gentle humour, this lovely and intricately-constructed story is about meeting challenges head-on and finding hope. Winner of Best of Fringe at the 2008 Toronto Fringe Festival, and Outstanding New Play at the 2010 New York International Fringe Festival, this is a newly-updated full-length production. div.
