BEST NATIONAL SHOW - Saskatoon Fringe 2026
Tall man, short tales.
Five instruments, no bananas, one swear word.

Winner of Best National Show at the 2026 Saskatoon Fringe, EAT IT ANYWAY is a heartfelt musical comedy featuring powerhouse storytelling, five instruments and Tall Mark’s signature wit. Through playful songs and candid humour, he explores chronic illness, self-acceptance and the 20,000 km cross-Canada journey that followed his Ankylosing Spondylitis diagnosis.
