There is No Anger Like That of a Woman - Halifax Fringe 2026

There is No Anger Like That of a Woman plays at the Neptune Theatre on Tuesday 8 September, as part of the Halifax Fringe festival. It's a two-person play that takes place in a brothel, and it runs from 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm.

The story starts with a banker who walks into a brothel and pays for an hour with the most expensive woman on the house. From there, the encounter turns into something neither of them expected. The production is described as a witty, furious and addictively intimate play about desire and power, and the two characters spend the hour in a sharp, darkly funny face-off that leaves the audience thinking long after the lights drop.

Because it's a Fringe show, it's a tight 45 minutes, so you're in and out in under an hour. The performance is at the Neptune's Windsor Studio, which is a smaller, more intimate space than the main stage, and that fits the setup here—two people in a room, the whole thing playing out right in front of you.

If you're around downtown on Tuesday evening, it's a short one: 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm at the Neptune Theatre, Windsor Studio, 1593 Argyle Street, Halifax, NS B3J 2B2.
