MORRO & JASP: GO BAKE YOURSELF! (2014)

U.N.I.T. Productions

Up your Nose and In your Toes Productions (U.N.I.T. Productions) is a non-profit theatre company dedicated to breaking social norms and identifying the flaws that we, as a society, work hard to cover up.  Through covert and multi-disciplinary ways we seek to help people rediscover joy, truth and creativity, not as a passing moment but as an important part of everyday life. We hope to heal the world one smile at a time.

U.N.I.T.’s signature characters, Morro and Jasp, have appeared in numerous Festivals in many cities including Halifax, Winnipeg, London, Edmonton, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa and New York City. In 2013, the company premiered two brand new shows, Of Mice and Morro and Jasp, which played to sold-out houses at Fringe Festivals in three cities, and Morro and Jasp: Go Bake Yourself which premiered at the Next Stage Festival and sold out its entire run. Subsequently, Go Bake Yourself had an extended run at Cahoots Theatre Company. This production was nominated for three Dora Mavor Moore Awards in the Independent Category for Outstanding Production, Best New Play, and won the award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble. In 2009 and 2010, U.N.I.T Productions’ shows, Morro and Jasp do Puberty and Morro and Jasp Gone Wild were selected as Patron’s Pick at the Toronto Fringe Festival. Morro and Jasp do Puberty was also invited to The Best of The Fringe at the Berkeley Theatre in Toronto in 2009 and was nominated for a 2010 Canadian Comedy Award for Best Play. 

In addition to their work for mature audiences, U.N.I.T. Productions has created four shows for young audiences, which have toured to schools throughout Ontario as well as The Orillia Opera House, The Centaur Theatre, The Vaughan City Playhouse, The Harbourfront Centre, and Sick Kids Hospital.
