What I liked

Clever lyrics, catchy tunes, great performances, overall a tremendous amount of fun!

What I didn't like

My overall impression

A super fun show for fanboys and girls and normal people, too! While it’s definitely way more entertaining if you understand the references, this show is also silly enough with enough badass performers crushing their vocals that non-Buffy/Twilight folks can still have a good time. The show is high energy start to finish, immersing the audience in a carnivalesque atmosphere of fun. Every actor is perfectly cast (and cast in multiple roles, which services the comedy beautifully) and lampoons the source material with aplomb. I have to say, Corrine’s Bella was uncanny (though K.Stew never had half that stage presence) and she had me in stitches. Sherry’s Buffy was spot on with snark, too. With excellent vocal performers and comedians alike, this is a great musical romp you don’t want to miss.
