MY GOD what an amazing show. The entire cast and crew of The Last Croissant needs to be commended for putting together a show that is weird, strange, dark, different, unique and yet somehow all comes together in a nearly perfect way. I mean it--The Last Croissant is the type of show a production company would KILL to produce. Everything about it is appealing. Especially the sound effects. KILLED it.... full review

This was one hell of a goofy show. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that if that's what you intended. And that is DEFINITELY what was intended here.... full review

What a treasure of a singer/songwriter Darcy Rose Byrnes is. I have enjoyed her in multiple different roles this Fringe and seeing her sing her own music (and how surprisingly dark and 'dirty') some of it can be was a real joy. I mean this in the best possible way--when I do another musical, if she's free I'm going to have her write the songs. Because her sense of humor is exactly what I'm thinking about for a show.... full review

This is a production that is very small and simple in its design. And yet the plot is very complex and something that doesn't come together until the very last moments of the show. And that's a rare treat--a show that can be small and simple and yet complex and interesting. Combine that with a dynamite performance and you've got something special.... full review

Man, what an interesting experience it was to see this show. I wasn't clear when I came in exactly what it was I was going to see--and that made it all the more interesting to watch this combination of live music and dance and monologues. All told something very different and unique.... full review

An astonishing show. Literally, that's all I have to say about this one.... full review

There is something so dark and so delicious at the core of this production that I can't effectively describe it in a review. Saying ANYTHING about the plot itself will destroy one of the best surprises that I've seen in any Fringe show this year. Jim Hanna has put together a show that's incredibly funny, dark, bitter and then goes places I would NEVER have expected. I sincerely hope this show both extends and gets a chance to move elsewhere (like New York). It 100% deserves it.... full review

I honestly did not expect to enjoy a show about Lincoln somehow being a presidential candidate in 2020. BOY, was I wrong. BOY WAS I WRONG. This show is exceptionally funny, goofy in all the right ways, manages to infuse some deep political satire and cautionary flags--all in a comedy that was so good the person next to me (who had another show scheduled and had asked me to tell him how it ended later) ended up staying to see the ENTIRE thing. That's a good damn show. ... full review

As always, Spencer has brought a goofy, different, interesting show to Fringe and it's completely worth seeing by anyone of any stripe. Ignore reviews that attempt to dismantle it because in all sincerity, they have no idea what they're talking about. This is designed to be goofy and have a fun time--and that's what it accomplishes.... full review

THIS WAS AN INCREDIBLE experience. 100% one of the best productions I've seen at this year's Fringe. Dandy tells amazing stories in absolute perfection and I could not stop talking about the show for the rest of the night I saw it.... full review
