A panicked run to Canada… A partner who only wants to keep her job at Harvard.. And a secret you never wanted to tell… What could possibly go wrong?

Brighton Fringe PREVIEW: Many Trump Refugees in One Body

A panicked run to Canada… A partner who only wants to keep her job at Harvard.. And a secret you never wanted to tell… What could possibly go wrong?

MANY Trump Refugees in One Body is the hilarious story of Queer Activist Lyralen Kaye’s surprising prescience about Trump… and her absolute ignorance about what it takes to immigrate to Canada.

Combining storytelling, physical theatre and stand-up comedy, this all-too-true story is a roller coaster of immigration challenges, long-term marriage comedy, and coming face-to-face with the need to accept yourself… while you wait to see if you get in.

“The show is ostensibly about running away from Donald Trump, which a lot of Americans wanted to do, but in this crazy process Lyralen learns some deeper truths about herself. I think it’s a show that resonates or should resonate with everybody.”…….Dave Flanagan, Playwright, Producer, Boston, MA

“In this delightful and courageous play, Lyralen Kaye not only reveals her own multiplicity but provides an example of how multiplicity can be healthy and hilarious.”…..Richard Schwartz, Founder, Internal Family Systems and Pixar consultant for Inside Out
