Prague Fringe: Odds Are

Ever feel like the universe has it in for you? Prague Excellence Award winner Smita Russell unpacks a real-life mystery full of misfortune and truths stranger than fiction. ODDS ARE returns to Europe after securing Grand Prize wins at the United Solo Theatre Festival and earning a string of five-star reviews at Edinburgh. Blending myth, medicine, math and memory, ODDS ARE explores what happens when science fails us, and we’re left to take control of our own story. It’s autobiographical, but never predictable: a sharp, genre-defying solo show that finds humour in heartbreak and meaning in chaos. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll shout, ‘Oh hell no! What did you do?!’ And you’ll learn that, sometimes, what nearly breaks us becomes the story that saves us.

“BEST OF FRINGE! If you’ve ever experienced chronically bad luck, this is a piece of theatre that’ll make you feel less alone.” — The Times of London
