Cave Girl the Musical

What an original and masterfully put together piece of solo musical theatre. Invited into the inner sanctuary of a tortured yet hilarious soul, we bear witness to the creative process and the many modes of self-destruction as well. Glennis is captivating adorable and extremely talented! I guess I would call this a comedic musical soul-o-show.... full review

This is the epitome of a fantastic Fringe experience! Something superbly creative using all kinds of theatrical standards and props in fresh and fun ways. Dancing, video, puppetry, the big box of surprises, wigs... and the performances polished, honest, and charming... oh, and absolutely hysterical and heart wrenching all in the same breath. ... full review

Leaving Prince Charming

Wow! Well, I could have saved a lifetime of heart ache if I had scene this show when I was in my early twenties! Lara is absolutely charming, adorable, sincere, brave, bold, and just downright impressive as all her selves coming to her own rescue. Empowering to say the least, Lara’s Leaving Prince Charming is one big lesson in self esteem and a powerhouse of a solo performance that will leave you begging for more! Spoiler alert... thank god she left him... for us!!!... full review

What a powerful tour de force into the landscape of crumbling self esteem and destructive vices. Crystal Bush brings in a powerful performance with equal measures hilarity and horror as we witness her struggle with ways to suppress issues of abandonment and self love.... full review

Too Old, Too Asian, Too Short

Pamela is oh so talented and endearing in her solo show recounting the journey she took achieving what she had been told was an impossible dream. We are left entertained and rooting for her all the way. Her smile and enthusiasm are infectious and her dance moves (and yes... LOTS of dancing!😁) are guaranteed to stir up the music in your heart.... full review

Wow! Tour de force! Dan’s portrayal of his collection of characters is just jaw dropping. He slides in and out of personalities with flawless effort and equal parts enthusiasm. His timing is impeccable and his delivery as colorful as there are emotions in the world. This well runs deep!... full review

Marilyn Monroe: The Last Interview

Marilyn incarnate! Clearly she has come back to tell her story! She found a dazzling cohort in Kelly so much so that it is hard to tell who is playing who. I’ve always wanted to meet Marilyn and yesterday my dream came true. Sweet, spectacular, and touching. ... full review
