“BREAK UP DIET” Alt-Music Theatre

Featuring the band TORRANCE wsg Lindy

Get ready, Hamilton—The Break-Up Diet is coming your way! Written and performed by UK/Canadian powerhouse Tamara Williamson (Mrs. Torrance, King Cobb Steelie, CROW), this raw and at times darkly humorous production dives headfirst into the chaos of heartbreak.

First adapted as an audiobook and then brought to the stage in 2018, Break-Up Diet won The Adams Award for Best New Script at the Toronto Fringe. Since then, it’s earned ★★★★★ reviews in NOW Magazine, was a Toronto Star Top Six Pick, and has wowed audiences at both the Toronto and Edinburgh Fringe Festivals.

Part theatre, part concert, part live podcast—this show blends hard-hitting original songs, intimate storytelling, and striking film. It’s a one-of-a-kind performance that will make you laugh, cry, and keep you spellbound until the final fire is lit.

Backed by her new band Torrance—featuring long-time collaborator Mitch Girio (King Apparatus), drummer Stephen Pitkin (Eliott Brood) and vocalist/keyboardist Cassie Jones—Williamson delivers a thunderous, immersive experience.

Opening the night is none other than Hamilton’s own local legend Lindy, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.
