Of course I went to see Julius Caesar. Julius Caesar is one of my very favorite historical figures, and I like Shakespeare too. Oh, I had an excellent time.
To begin with, there was complimentary wine. As I have said, this gives so many points. Wine and theatre are a holy combination and more should recognize this. I gave thanks and said my blessing for the wine, being very grateful to Dionysos and the Unive...

I loved this show from beginning to end. I may be biased in that I am a classicist, the Iliad is my favorite poem, and Achilles is one of my favorite heroes of all-time... but I think anyone would have enjoyed this.
I met the playwright and others before the show, at Bryan's Bar. They recommended it to me and I told them I would certainly come- how could I not? The playwright and narrator, David LeBarron, told...

I knew I wanted to see this show just because of the awesome promo pictures. I love having fun with religion.
Because of said personal preference, and the quality, this show was my favorite of the festival thus far. And did not theatre and religion begin as One in a beautiful celebration of life?
I approached Zehra Fazal after the show, at Bryan's Bar, to compliment her and tell her how much I loved her ...

I came to this show because it was free, and so I thought I'd support that, attend, and do a review. I didn't really have any idea what it would be about. I did rather enjoy myself. As I entered, the cast was already performing, jamming with their musical instruments and dancing. There was a guitar and a flute and a drum. The cast was very diverse in appearance and clothing, which I enjoyed. The stage decoration w...

I saw this show last year, which was very good, and I am friends with Jon, so I thought I would of course attend again. His shows were pretty much sold out, which is good- this has been a successful Fringe for him, and no wonder. I don't see how anyone could not like his show.
Now, I am a magician of a “different” sort, but that doesn't mean we can't all get along. I have heard magicians of my sort defaming mag...

Vijai Nathan was delightful in her one woman show, Woman On Top: Tips from Mom, Dad & COSMO: "hilarious, titillating & true tales about Boobs, Barbies, Spanx, Porn & Driving your man wild!" Vijai says of herself: "Comedian Vijai Nathan’s parents taught her how to be the perfect Indian wife, but COSMO made her want to be so much more."
I recommend that anyone interested in sexy comedy or jokes about cultural ...

What would a festival be without Yoga? It is a matter of course that Yoga and Theatre should go hand in hand. I attended Fringe Yoga and told the instructor, Sarah Grace, member of Brontosaurus, how glad I was that it should be a part of Fringe. I told her that Yoga was approximately one-third of my spirituality, and Theatre another one-third- she agreed that the situation was kismet. I told her I would love for F...

Now for a review of Full Frontal Music, written and performed by James Schneider and directed by Viorica Baln. At first I thought I would have no interest in this show- I suppose I just glossed over anything “sexy” when I was looking for shows to see- but I was working the venue and it just so happened to drop into my lap. I am very glad the Universe gave that to me. I enjoyed it- with so many dick jokes, the show co...

Now for my first 2011 Hollywood Fringe Festival review. The first show I saw was Cowboy Mouth. It’s an old Sam Shepard play . This production was directed by Sam Hunter of San Diego (not to be confused with the other Sam Hunter of Iowa in the theatre community, ha!).
The Fringe is a non-curated arts festival for emerging arts in Los Angeles, and I heard someone say yesterday that she sees no point in doing previously-don...
