Our Little Secret: The 23&Me Musical

The Toronto Fringe Festival is back in all its beautiful, messy, enthusiastic creative energy. What a joy! Here’s the second of two Fringe reviews for shows seen within a 24-hour window. We’re finishing with Our Little Secret: The 23&Me Musical.

Have you ever known that you were witnessing something that was destined to get real big, real fast? There have definitely been Toronto Fringe shows like that; The Drowsy Chaperone at 1998’s festival went on to win five Tony awards, and in 2009 My Mother’s Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding graduated to a full-budget Mirvish production, a Canadian tour, and a little follow-up show you may have heard of called Come From Away.

We’re overdue for another Fringe sleeper headed towards monster stardom, and it’s here. Our Little Secret: The 23&Me Musical has all the hallmarks of a hit. Stand in whatever line you need to, do whatever you can to catch this show before it goes nuclear. You’ll have bragging rights that you were there at the beginning.
