TJ Dawe, award winning writer & performer, is bringing back his 2012 hit MEDICINE to Fringe Year Round. In MEDICINE, he tells of his experience at a retreat led by author, doctor, and activist Gabor Mate, in which participants ingest the Peruvian shamanic psychotropic plant brew ayahuasca ("eye-a-waska").
At turns hilarious and tear-jerking, Dawe dives into the unknown depths of his past, searching for the hidden roots to his own behaviour.
