Adrian Chamberlain’s suggestions for shows to see at Fringe Festival
Quote:
Aspergers: A Tale of a Social Misfit (Roxy Theatre, opens Tuesday, continues to Sept. 3)
Schwartz is a young stand-up comic who’s on the autism spectrum.
Asperger syndrome makes maintaining relationships difficult, as those affected have difficulty picking up social cues. In Aspergers: A Tale of a Social Misfit Schwartz bravely jokes about his challenges, touching on his efforts to make friends and find a girlfriend. The show was created with a team that includes Victoria comic Curran Dobbs, who’s also autistic.
The festival is being held in Victoria, British Columbia.
