SHAKESLESQUE (To Thine Own Cherry Be True)

This show is fucking amazing. The best thing CPC has done, bar none. Packing eleven million people onto the postage stamp stage of Three Clubs doing an Elizabethan wedding dance to "Smells Like Teen Spirit"?? Seriously? How did they do this???? Bar. Raised. Every character had an arc, the new players were spot on, the choreography was amazing, the (vague spoiler) Ophelia scene was a new unbelievably dark shade to the usual fun times, it was laugh out loud funny, super sexy (as always), I always appreciate wild takes on the Bard, and the band was ON FIRE! Alli Miller and Sarah Haworth-Hodges killed it again and improved on what seemed un-improvable. (Side note: my goal in life remains - "to be Schoen Hodges.") Brava and bravo. ... full review

Anthony Hopkins sings Tom Waits while Ophelia dances with scantily clad ladies. Non stop fun with some nerds references that if you don't get there's still plenty to be entertained by. See it for the witch(es) character. She effectively and hilariously plays 3 ppl at once.... full review

Cherry Poppins has been called Fringe Royalty and they earned the title yet again. They have raised the bar from previous productions and they had already set it well above head height. The show manages to go from a hilarious and riotous sex comedy to a heart breaking tragedy all the while treating the audience with an endless stream of reimagined pop music, and dick jokes. This company has taken their usually stellar shows and upped their game even further. This show is amazing. ... full review

I would see it again-definitely put this one on your Fringe calendar. ... full review

Do you like enjoying yourself as you watch a show? If you do then get your butt in a seat for Shakeslesque. I fantastic triple threat of a show. A funny as hell script, exquisite choreography, and harmonies to bring the house down. It is a show not to be missed. And i still have no idea how they made that many costume changes and fit so many people on that stage in such a seamless way. ... full review

Amazing, amazing show. CPP hits another home run. This is the best written show, and the performers all crushed their parts. Special shout-out to Schoen Hodges who stole every scene he was in. Great jokes, beautiful vocals, tremendous acting, and a smokin' band. If you can only see one Fringe show, this is it!... full review

This was an absolute delight. Well written, well performed, so clever, funny, and sexy. I hope there is a sequel!... full review
