Dark comedy similar in style to Tarantino, absolutely brilliant! The writing is so clever and all three characters are so much fun to follow their journey. I found myself so anxious for the outcome I became so invested. Highly recommend this show!!!! ... full review

So relatable!!! What a journey back to 1997 told by the dazzling Chris Farah. The use of props and video really painted the picture and gave us a coming of age story we could all identify with. Loved this heartbreaking, vulnerable, comedic tell-all. ... full review

OBSESSED!!! I had such a blast at this immersive experience and got WAY too into the story. This is truly what an immersive show should be, full of twists and turns and every show is completely different because they go with however the audience participants affect the outcome. Really well thought out, super fun night of theater. House Velvet Curtain forever!!!! ... full review

If you’re a nerd, especially if you are a Star Wars nerd, this is the show for you!!!!
