A sinfully good time. Exorcistic took an iconic curse horror movie and made fun of it, and hollywood. All while maintaining the edge of rock and roll, and a tinge of horror. You might want to bring your rosary just in case. You can check out my full review here: http://spencercotter.wordpress.com/2013/06/25/bring-a-rosary/... full review

I came to see the show because I'm friends with several of the cast members, having fallen in love with them in last year's production of Doomsday Cabaret. That being said this is a totally different animal. The cast of this show were incredible, especially Laura Sperrazza and Anna Bowen - those two can SING! Loved the story and the way the company approached it. It came across perfectly. Check out the remainder of my review on Examiner.com... full review

It's a good time. fringeblog.webs.com ... full review

Why? There was no there there. okay for a late night bar show, but not solid enough to stand on its own, despite a few funny bits and an outstanding performance by Laura Sperrazza. ... full review

When Michael Shaw Fisher walks out to introduce Exorcistic at its Fringe Mainstage home, it takes a few minutes before you realize that the musical has actually begun. Already knee deep in the show-within-a-show concept, he explains that this is a workshop presentation of his world premiere rock musical as backstage business becomes part of the onstage action. Over the next 80 minutes the show will progress from The Staged Reading to The Fringe to The Pantages as a theatre company mounts a musical parody production of The Exorcist and unwittingly unleashes a demonic force that takes over and leads them through an Exorcist-inspired series of deadly events. Book, music & lyrics are by Fisher and the show features a 70s rock score, full ... full review
