Welcome to the Neighborhood

This was such a fun show. I had a BLAST...you know, minus the radiation (hah, get it?). The show was definitely a BLAST (wow, again?) from the past, and the performers really made me feel like I was in good ol' Pleasantville (or other 50s movie) again.... full review

Happily Ever After

Diana is an incredible storyteller. I really felt a catharsis of emotions while watching this show -- the humor, the sadness, it was all very well done!... full review

Shelley is a fantastic performer who fills the room with her powerhouse vocals and nuanced characteristics of Maria Callas. Kali douleia (great work)!... full review

Experiencing Love on The Spectrum

spencer frankeberger · August 20, 2021 certified reviewer
George is an engaging, warm storyteller, and the story is not only hilarious, but full of rich details that left me empathizing with his story but also identifying how much of it truly resonated with me. A 90's fever dream (in more ways than one), this story is fun, engaging, and George really doesn't hold back in telling his story.... full review

The Book That Won't Close- Confessions of A Love Addict

spencer frankeberger · August 20, 2021 certified reviewer
TL is a powerhouse performer -- not only that, she takes her vulnerabilities and lays it all out for us to observe as an audience. And even then, her story relates more closely to me as someone working toward finding my identity than I ever could have imagined. Keep the book open and keep exploring. Great job!... full review

TransSetter

spencer frankeberger · August 18, 2021 certified reviewer
Absolutely hysterical and also strikingly profound, this show is worth a watch (or two or three). Even with Veronica's journey being different than my own, I found myself engaged with how relatable this journey is to me, but in entirely different ways.... full review

VERSATILE

spencer frankeberger · August 18, 2021 certified reviewer
I was blown away by this show. Not only was it incredible but it was extremely relatable as someone who often struggles with identity. Slick, thoughtful, funny, and poignant, this show is truly for everyone who is (or maybe even isn't) explore their own identity -- in fact, some may say it's...VERSATILE (*wink*) for many different audiences.... full review

No Matter Watt - The Musical!

spencer frankeberger · August 15, 2021 certified reviewer
I have seen this show grow a lot over the past year, from many changes, from the failures to successes, and overall, this show, while ambitious and maybe a little loose and unpolished (it is Fringe after all!), has some great moments that will become even better in time and with the chance to expand the work into a longer piece.... full review
