Some say glowsticks have no place in poetry or theatre. We are not those people.

A person who only knows how to live on stage meets a person who doesn’t know what to do with a person who only knows how to live on stage. They dance around with the idea that you can create a show that is a play within a play, that may be a rehearsal for a play within a play. While also being pop-poetry-punk-cabaret. Now you have ‘Theatre of Unapologetic Sparkles’. Bring on the fairywings and glowsticks and let’s figure out who we are, together.

Written by Steve Smart. Performed by Es Foong and Steve Smart. Technical Wizardry by George O’Hara.
