What a moving story. Cyanne McClairian is engaging, charming and completely fearless as she tells the story behind her own death and return... and more importantly, what happened in between. A heartfelt tale of hope and catharsis. Worth going just to watch her channel Sir Laurence Olivier. Bravo!... full review

Marry Me A Little

The Good People at Good People have done it again! Janet Miller has done a fantastic job bringing this medley of Sondheim's misfit musical selections to life! Jessie Withers & David Laffey's gorgeous vocals are accompanied by Corey Hirsch's on-point piano. The rest of the production is delightfully simple, providing the perfect unobtrusive backdrop. Easy to see why this is Stage Raw's Pick of the Week! ... full review

Go. See. This. Show. The Hinkler sisters are an epic powerhouse team you need to behold. Just go. You'll thank me later. ... full review

BLOOD, A Voodoo Love Story

Erotic Horror is not the first genre I expected to see at a Fringe Festival, but after witnessing BLOOD, a Voodoo Love Story, I want more! This show is one of the sexiest productions I've seen in Los Angeles, and that's 100% because of the talent Maria Tomas and Phrederic Semaj bring to the stage. Bravo. ... full review

The Last Known Recording of the Lovely Lenore Sisters

Jen Kenyon has created an intriguing and entertaining experience with "The Last Known Recording of the Lovely Lenore Sisters." It's Agatha Christie meets The Andrews Sisters, with Kenyon's flawless portrayals of each unique member of this trio as the main reason to come and experience the show. Bravo!... full review

Daughter of an Alien

An interesting story brought to life with excellent production value across the board (especially the makeup!), except for the complete absence of a sound plot. The show would have been greatly enhanced by music during the many scene changes. But, that one gripe aside, this play reminded me very much of the great episodes of Star Trek. I'm intrigued to see what the future has in store for this play. Great work!... full review

Only the Moon Howls

gregory crafts · July 01, 2015 certified reviewer
It's not very often that a show brings me to blubbering tears, but this one did, and it's a testament to the healing power of art. This show spoke to me on a very personal level. It was a very eerie case of art (almost) imitating life, and it affected me in a profound way. I survived a pretty gnarly car accident back in April. The experience shook both my wife of six years (who was not with me when it happened) and I up pretty badly. Sitting and watching this show unfold, we both realized at t... full review

Soundly

I had no idea what to expect, seeing this show. The house was full of large, cushy pillows for the audience to lounge upon, rather than seats. The stage was lit by the warm glow of string lights. Wine and treats were handed out beforehand. It felt like I was going to a poetry jam. What I beheld instead was one of the most sincere, beautiful and intimate stories about friendship and the bonds between us that I've ever seen. I can't sing this show's praises high enough. ... full review

Saint Mel

gregory crafts · June 30, 2015 uncertified reviewer
What a bizarre and unexpected story! I never thought I'd see a show that could make a character like Mel Gibson sympathetic, but Saint Mel did exactly that. Christopher Lane's turn as the titular Saint Mel was 100% spot-on and brilliant. Bravo. ... full review
