Angelic Lives

Alex Karolyi’s original work, Angelic Lives, had audiences rolling in their seats with laughter as we follow the off-beat date between Kate (played by Sarah Grigg) and Gus (played by Bob Kostadinov) while both characters battle their precautious alter-ego’s Angel (played by Christina Nicalou) and Angel 2 (played by John Shreeve).

Angelic Lives recently also enjoyed rave reviews during its winter production at Toronto’s esteemed Arts & Letters Club.
