A brilliant piece to find out if Eliza becomes (?) begets (?) the EGOT In this hilarious one-person show we follow Eliza's career as a former child 'star,' testing out her many talents. We laugh as she carefully laughs at herself, while getting through sensitive subjects.With sharp wit and infectious charm, she isn't afraid to poke fun at herself, transforming personal experiences and more sensitive subjects into moments of genuine humor and connection. Eliza's charisma keeps the audience engaged...

Second Rodeo is one of the hidden gems of this year's Hollywood Fringe Festival. With exceptional writing, confident direction, and deeply committed performances, this production lands with remarkable emotional force. Poetic, haunting, and emotionally rich. It's the kind of theater that doesn't just entertain; it invites reflection and leaves you feeling changed. A beautiful reminder of art's ability to make us both think and feel....

I first heard about White Lilies from the director of another Fringe show, who gave it a glowing endorsement during his curtain speech. After seeing it for myself, I can confidently say the praise was well deserved. The play follows a writer, who receives an unexpected visit from his brother. What begins as a simple reunion quickly unfolds into something far more complex, exploring themes of family, parenthood, and more. As the conversations deepen, layers are peeled back and the audience is draw...

A concise, 30-minute play detailing the resilience of leaving a war-torn Vietnam, Vivi Thai does a great job in presenting her deeply personal story, allowing use to feel through by images and documents, personal accounts. Vivid stories and images that remind us of the horrors of war. Important, intimate, and lessons that will stay with us long after the show ends. I know Vivi will continually work on this and I can't wait to see how it will develop....

Writer/directors Pam Eberhardt and Dan Testa return to the Fringe Festival with a tense, psychological thriller about crisis counselors working the overnight shift. I first heard about this show as I saw audience members walking out of the theater, after the show had ended, remarking, "That show was so good... intense!" And I cannot help but agree! The show is more about the relationships within the center, the unfolding of character, than the crises they work on. With chilling performances and a...

Seen this at 30 Minutes or Less Fest and I think it's too important to miss! Diaz shows us what society wants from the "Perfect Woman" and how harmful that can be to everyone. Sharp, concise, and full of heart; awakens us to our own humanity in a 30 minute show. Diaz does a good job connecting with the audience, rather than lecturing us, finding ways to include each of us in sme way....
