Written and Performed by Alexandra Montagnese

Directed and Dramaturged by Taliesin McEnaney

This true story takes us to 2007; the school’s on lockdown, someone called 911, and rumours are spreading.

Public Mischief takes us inside the crumbling reality of a very ambitious 17-year-old playwright, and high school it-girl, while she navigates the rocky terrain between truth and fiction in the first real romance of her life. Witness her process of  untangling the truth with the help and hindrance of hallway rumours, giddy sisters, and one super-intuitive police officer. What will the human lie detector deduce? Who will her parents believe? But most importantly, when will she finally “do it”?

"...with superb direction by Taliesin McEnaney....this is arguably the most brilliantly-executed one-woman show I’ve ever seen" - Kingstontheatre.ca

"...Very clever..can't take my eyes off a vivid Alexandra Montagnese" - Marilla Martin, CBC
