“Vlaskalic and Pederson are the heart and soul of this performance and it’s their dialogue and trading of monologues that deliver the raw emotion and sexual frustration that keeps the gears turning.” - Mooney on Theatre
“Pederson and Vlaskalic have chemistry both comedic and sexual, and director Vikki Anderson holds tightly the reins on her performers as well as on the rapid-fire script.” - The Torontoist
Best of the fest! Outstanding Ensemble. - NOW Magazine

A strange and heated happening in a museum one night propels Marion into a fantastical, romantic entanglement with two men and a Minotaur. Cheeky, hedonistic and charmingly humorous, The Bull, The Moon and The Coronet of Stars is a sexy, imaginative and poetic story of heartbreak and redemption. A love story of mythic proportions. The Bull, will lure you into an orgy of cupcakes, wine, artifacts and fate.
