Comic dance-theatre conceived and performed by Yukon born 'Intrepid' Jen. This is the story of Jen's life and survival in the remote wilds of the Yukon Territory, Northern Canada... and her ultimate escape. A boisterously laugh-out-loud, cabaret-style survival guide to an unbelievably mad life in the frozen north, home to the coldest temperature ever recorded in North America, where tossing chainsaws is entertainment. Dark, fearless, original and bizarre, you'll laugh, holler, quaff very questionable cocktails and learn to be Bear Aware. And it's all (mostly) true... **** (List).

Edinburgh preview: Yukon Ho!

Yukon Territory, Northern Canada is where North America's coldest temperature ever (-631 degrees Celsius) was recorded. It's where there are more caribou than people, tossing chainsaws is entertainment, barbecued squirrel is food and Saturday evenings spent at the garbage dump watching bears foraging for food is a big night out.
