Review: (Toronto) The Emergency Monologues (Fringe)

A Dude, a Wheel, and an Array of Stories

Morgan Jones Phillips’ one-man show The Emergency Monologues is a collection of stories from his 10 years as a paramedic in downtown Toronto. What’s cool about this show is that there is a “Wheel of Misfortune” set up on stage. Each slice of the wheel’s pie has a different title on it and based on where the ticker lands, that’s the story Phillips tells. Thus, no two shows are the same and you never know what you’re going to get.
