A fantastic multimedia extravaganza that dives into the soul and touches on so many layers of the human experience by exceptionally vulnerable and talented actor Jake Freekin Smith from....well he's not exactly sure where to say where he's from but wherever doesn't matter anymore since he's discovered the key to his existential crisis.

How to Survive an Existential Crisis @ Geordie Espace 4001 Venue #3. Presented by Nothing Everything Productions (Montreal). Jake Freekin Smith bares more than just his bod on stage, he also bares his soul while delivering an outstanding one person show. What makes it special is the unique innocence and raw emotion of the storytelling; This sets it apart from other solo shows in that it is 'REAL' and not just another "this really happened to me, now sit down and listen to me" type of monologue. Captivating from start to finish with a quality multimedia presentation including projection, live music, seamless blocking of transitions, and a flawless performance. It will definitely appeal to the Mom's in the audience and if it were a film it could risk being labeled as a "chick-flick", but there is definitely something for everybody here. 5 cents. Dee Arr
