LA Weekly: “GO… Alex Knox weaves a winning tapestry of wry insight, musicological history (of ‘70s jazz-rock supergroup Steely Dan, no less) and engaging self-deprecation, all framed with elegant economy by director Becca Wolff’s crisp, precision-tuned production.” (Bill Raden)
LA Examiner: "Alex Knox is a storyteller, plain and simple. This show is a work of art, especially if you love music… " (Bob Leggett)
Bitter Lemons: “Alex is a very charismatic, endearing actor and his quirky show is tight, simple and reads like an existential mystery… Probably the best one man show I’ve seen so far.” (Colin Mitchell)
Turnstyle News: “The effortlessly charming Alex Knox… sets the mood by spinning records through the show, timing his stories perfectly to the soundtrack… Knox is an engaging, dynamic, and heartfelt storyteller… Director Becca Wolff creates a perfect rhythm with Knox…” (Noah Nelson)

(NO STATIC AT ALL) — a world premiere solo show written and performed by Alex Knox and directed by Becca Wolff — delves into one man’s crisis of faith and his obsession with an enigmatic rock band. Come along on this highly personal journey of self-discovery that makes stops at untamed beaches on Kauai, sweaty recording studios in L.A., and a tiny town in Israel that hides an earthshaking relic. And remember: If your world is spinning… put a record on.
Alex Knox (Writer/Performer) is an actor based in Los Angeles and Orange County. His recent stage credits include EURYDICE at South Coast Repertory and MACBETH at The Antaeus Company. On camera, he can be seen as the hapless hero in the music video for Green Day’s “Stray Heart.” He created and directed EYE, a wordless mask play featuring music, movement, and more than a dozen original masks. Alex is a company member of Tilted Field Productions, and a graduate of UC Santa Barbara and the Yale School of Drama. (NO STATIC AT ALL) is his first one-man play.
