Cornflake


Trapped in the mundane world of dry comedy and door-to-door salesmanship, Cornflake is an experimental comedic drama about a bird and a rat living in a world where one must forget and where one must stay exactly the same.

Cornflake premiered at the Montreal Fringe in June 2024 before going on a five-city fringe tour to fringe festivals across Eastern Canada.

Jurors Remarks

What Fringe Festival Jurors Had To Say About Cornflake

The fringiest fringe show I’ve seen in a long time.

Island Fringe Juror

A rat and a bird walk into a comedy club. No, it’s not a punch line, but it IS a punch in the gut about loneliness delivered by two high octane performance artists. Who knew Cornflakes could be so toxic.

Rod Carley, ON THE EDGE Fringe Juror

Absurdly brilliant with outstanding movement and dance sequences.
