Theatre for Living’s Maladjusted returns to Vancouver!

Back by popular demand: Theatre for Living’s critically acclaimed maladjusted comes back home to the Firehall Arts Center after touring into 26 communities across BC & Alberta.

Audiences are calling it a “thought provoking, gut wrenching, funny, sad and mind-broadening” piece of interactive theatre.
