Totem Figures

Post a review of this show!

What can I say? TJ Dawe has done it again. This time, he brings us a show about himself, about his personal heroes, about what a totem pole of his life would look like. He makes you laugh, he makes you think, he makes you nod on more than one occasion. Simply put, TJ is the best the Fringe has to offer. Worth a second viewing. And a third. I think I'm in love. ***** P.S. He was selling some scripts for his old shows, so if you're interested, bring some $!

Did you know about Charles Bukowski and John Fahey - not me!

A thinking person's show, 90 minutes of brilliant monologue with a strong dramatic arc. How does he do that?

Pull 90 minutes of disparate pieces into a cohesive whole and make me want to go home and Google obscure poets and musicians.

Admirable honesty and charming performance.

Buy your tickets beforehand if you want to see this show. TJ is so successful on the Fringe circuit that he no longer has to poster and attracts sell out audiences on word of mouth buzz alone.

One day someone is going to do a show about TJ Dawe and his legacy at the Fringe which will include bits of this show which is about TJ Dawe and his legacy at the Fringe. So do yourself a favour and see this show while TJ is still performing it.
