From press release:

Beer. Music. Hallucinogens. After the death of their lead singer, two band members embark on an Ontario-wide Pub Crawl. Performed concert style with live original music in a functioning bar, BINGE pits self-discovery against self-destruction as two musicians push their livers and their sanities to the breaking point.

Featuring a creative team full of emerging artists ready to make their mark on the Toronto theatre scene: Luke Pieroni (KATA, Theatre Parallax, strangeness and breath, Epigraph Collective) Joel Edmiston (The 10/10/10 Project, Then They Fight Theatre. Cloud Nine, Theatre@York) and Curtis te Brinke (Love Me Forever Billy H Tender, Videofag. The 10/10/10 Project,Then They Fight Theatre.) BINGE marks Epigraph’s first commissioned development of a play, after a year of workshopping with playwright Joel Edmiston. Exhibiting both emerging theatrical and musical talent, BINGE is an immersive theatrical experience where the audience will be welcomed with an opening band of local talent and invited to share a drink along with the cast and crew.
