The Particulars is a high-energy, humorous exploration of normalcy, heartache, and horticulture. Gordon's healthy routine includes monitoring the aphids in his home garden, swallowing seaweed smoothies, and dancing at a nightclub once a week. However, when an unwanted nocturnal pest infests his home - and psyche, his attempts to regain control of his rigid schedule become increasingly out of character...

Using luscious language to delve into grief, paranoia and the impinging of the spirit world on a carefully calculated, hyper-normal lifestyle, The Particulars addresses the futility of escaping from an unresolved brokenhearted past:
"4.5 stars! The Particulars broke my heart and I didn’t even see it coming. My favourite show this Fringe." (Edmonton Journal)
