Following critical acclaim at New York City Fringe, winning FIVE awards including Audience Choice and Staff Choice, five-star reviews, and selling out theatres in both Los Angeles and New York City, How to Poop in an Outhouse at -58°C is having its international premiere at Edinburgh Fringe this August 2026! Award-winning storyteller Kona Morris tells the astonishing true story of how she fell in love with an Alaska Native and moved to a remote village north of the Arctic Circle. Exhilarating, hilarious, heart-warming storytelling that will transport you to the top of the world! Grizzly bears, whirlpools, northern lights, and the transformation that happens when you take chances and embrace the unknown. And yes, you will learn all the tips needed for using an outhouse when it is really freaking cold outside. You might just learn a few other things, too.
