People Suck is a musical that humorously critiques the flaws of humanity through a song cycle that tackles the various ways people can be difficult and unlikable. Created by Peter Cavell and Megan Phillips and directed by Jessica Sherman, the show offers a comical yet relatable exploration of social grievances, from frenemies to spelling mishaps. After successful runs in Melbourne, this production brings its biting humor and sharp observations to Toronto audiences during the 2025 Toronto Fringe Festival.
