I Am Google

What if Google was not a high tech search engine, but a regular guy in an apartment full of maps, calendars and reference books whose job was doing research 24 / 7 without time to crash? What if Twitter was his ex-girlfriend and currently dating Facebook. What if Wikipedia was just his know-it-all buddy giving him bad information while Bing seeks to destroy him at every turn? Come visit Google and get all your questions answered, LIVE and in person! Free cookies for all visitors!

Hollywood actor and computer expert Craig Ricci Shaynak returns to FRINGE as Google in his original and hilarious look at our obsession with the internet.

Mr. Shaynak has appeared with Academy Award™ winners Matt Damon in The Informant and Christian Bale in Harsh Times, as well as voiced characters in Happy Feet and Night at the Museum. He has also appeared in major television shows such as ER, Without A Trace, Law & Order LA, Las Vegas, and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. You can see Craig on the new Showtime series, Ray Donovan with stars Liev Schreiber, Jon Voight and James Woods. Craig has made frequent appearances at Fringe and Comedy Festivals around the world in Chicago, New York, Edinburgh, London, Adelaide, Avignon and Melbourne. www.craigriccishaynak.com

“Has it ever occurred to you that your search engine might be a real person, with feelings and a sense of morality, spending all day toiling in pursuit of your every whim? It hadn’t occurred to me either. Fortunately, Craig Ricci Shaynak is crazy enough to actualize such an inventive concept with his joyously playful show, ‘I Am Google’. A well-conceived delight.” **** Fringe Guru

“This is proper laugh out loud humor delivered by a comic genius. Shaynak takes the best (and worst) aspects of the internet and mashes them together into an hour of original comedy that will have the audience in hysterics.” * Broadway Baby

“Shaynak is clever and hilarious, improvising bits and asking people for language suggestions, so he can Google Translate.” **** The Skinny

“There were moments when the crazed chameleon that is Shaynak’s Google seemed to channel Jonathan Winters… Fast-paced, interactive, smart and wildly funny… I Am Google should not be missed.” The World Socialist Website

“A very clever, if somewhat geeky show, which will entertain the nerds and Google power users and more.” **** Kryztoff.com (Adelaide)

“This show could be just what you are, well, searching for.” * Herald Sun (Melbourne)

“A consistently amusing, thoughtful show with developing potential as limitless as the World Wide Web.” * The Scotsman
