Steph Haller and Paddy MacDonald are real-life exes with serious improv chops.
Created and performed by Steph Haller and Paddy MacDonald. Directed by Hana Holubec. Until July 17 at Tarragon Theatre Extraspace, 30 Bridgman Ave., fringetoronto.com and 416-966-1062.But in “Too Much Information Improvised,” real-life exes Steph Haller and Paddy MacDonald do just that. Recounting the intricacies of their past relationship, Haller and MacDonald improvise their way through scene after scene, playing everything from scorned lovers on the TTC to unwitting partners at a sex class.
Haller and MacDonald are natural improv partners, even if their romantic relationship never panned out the way they might have hoped. As it happens, they’re both married now, and their spouses don’t necessarily love “Too Much Information Improvised.” Not because it’s bringing Haller and MacDonald back together, but because they’re not big fans of improv.
