Johnnie Walker's New Solo Show THE HETEROSEXUALS to Make Toronto Debut in November

Tour-de-force writer/performer Johnnie Walker will present the Toronto debut of his newest, most personal, and most provocative solo show to date: The Heterosexuals.

And what do they think they're wearing? Find out in this explosive work based on undercover research gathered by Walker while posing as one of their own! Combining elements of storytelling, satire, comedy, and deep personal humiliation, The Heterosexuals is here to spill the T on what The Queers really think about The Straights.
