My overall impression

Where do I begin. The cast were extremely forced and amateur in their performances. The content was at times frivolous despite the obvious metaphors about the human existence, which held no weight given the poor delivery. There were moments within the four plays which were forced and uncalled for; I failed to see the driving force for these reactions which had no emotional depth to them. There were some funny moments, but in all I was extremely disappointed by the four plays and sat writhing in my seat for most of it. It is plays like this that have always deterred me from attending the Fringe Festival, sometimes I think Hollywood should just stick to making movies.
