Never Own Anything You Have to Paint or Feed

2013 Regina International Fringe Theatre Festival
A mini-review of Howard Petrick's Never Own Anything You Have to Paint or Feed by Fringe social media liaison Sabrina Cataldo.



Remember the days when you could rent a room in a dive hotel for $2 a week, 50 cents bought you two burgers and a Coke, and riding the rails was a viable mode of transportation to your next job interview? Neither do I. But Howard Petrick does. In Never Own Anything You Have to Paint or Feed, he spins nostalgic, engaging tails of people on the fringes of society. By the end of the show, you’ll know the difference between a hobo and a bum, how a worker can be blacklisted by a watermark, and the words to a union anthem.
