Before the happy ending, there are many “happy endings”…

The Guys I F*cked

Ready to bring the house down with thunderous laughter this September is The Guys I F*cked, a hilarious true story of one woman’s search for a husband and the merry band of eclectic suitors she met along the way.

Centenie Narusis’ colourful dating history takes centre stage in this comedy starring Fringe Favourite and local comedienne Megan Phillips in the leading role, alongside Kwasi Thomas and Hans Potter. The Guys I F*cked plays at the Waterfront Theatre, as part of the Vancouver Fringe Festival, September 10th - 20th 2026.

After years of searching (unsuccessfully), ‘Christine’ (the biographical representation of Narusis) is all set to marry ‘Noah’, but before they tie the knot, they step into an unsuspecting therapist's office for a pre-marriage session to unearth the good, bad, and ugly in Christine’s dating past in hilariously dramatic fashion. This show has been written over the last few years, however it has some poetic justice in being picked for this year's festival which lands on Narusis’ twentieth wedding anniversary, meaning this heartwarming and hilarious story is also a celebration of what happens when you give true love a chance after a lot of perseverance.

“Despite the insanely personal and sometimes whackadoodle nature of the dating stories, The Guys I F*cked is universally relatable, and endlessly fascinating. Within the story, we encounter self-discovery, personal transformation, and a sense of belonging. It’s a bit edgy, and full of surrealist fun and laughs, which I think the whole world needs right now.” - Centenie Narusis on The Guys I F*cked

Amongst the 80+ shows taking to the stage at this year’s Vancouver Fringe Festival, The Guys I F*cked promises to be one of the best in the fest.
