A smart and sharply written political satire. Megan, Rob, and Sean are hilarious as they argue, push the Constitution via an infomercial, push conspiracy theories via a game show, and sometimes push each other to humorous onstage violence.
I watched this show on the evening of the Presidential debate, which I did not watch. Based upon reviews of that I have heard coming in, this show was the far more intelligent choice....

Truly one of the most inventive, creative, fun shows I’ve seen at Hollywood Fringe. Zack is captivating as Zoog Dabbity, who seeks squeeb to return to his planet after his spaceship crashes on Earth.

This is a show in two parts by the talented married couple Jake and Laura Scruggs. The first part, delivered with pure childlike joy by Laura Scruggs, is a tribute to her beloved Grandpa as she reflects on her memories of growing up in a religious family. The second part, delivered in a more matter-of-fact but nonetheless entertaining style by Jake Scruggs, is the story of how they met and married, and some of the struggles they navigated as a couple. Each in a unique style completely distinct fr...

A thoroughly enjoyable interpretation of the Lord of the Rings, minus the scenery, large cast. and special effects. All of these are replaced by Riley Smith acting out the scenes, while doing an incredibly thorough and oftentimes hilarious job of describing the movie action....
