Rolls is a master storyteller in a category of his own with his dry, sardonic, British accent omnipresent throughout his pieces veering from introspection, outrage, amusement that makes each morsel of opinion, phrase he utters charming yet with a relatable presence.
Adventures in Canadian Parking Lots is must see theatre only because once again Rolls is able to perfectly capture and captivate and disarm and comfort the audience with little effort. Rolls as a performer, poet, and wordsmith whom is truly a giant in the Fringe Festival circuit and not to be missed.
Adventures in Canadian Parking Lots by Jem Rolls is running at The Cosmopolitan (Cosmo) Seniors’s Centre from August 1-9th at the Saskatoon Fringe Festival in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Tickets can be bought online here, the box office or the venue itself.
Jem Rolls returns to the Saskatoon Fringe Festival once again for his latest offering, Adventures in Canadian Parking Lots which are six distinct pieces of poetry where Rolls reflects on touring the Canadian Fringe circuit and waxing poetically about observations, absurdities and insights of his travels across Canada.
