An Excuse To Behave Badly

bob leggett · June 27, 2019 certified reviewer
This show may well be the launching point for the brilliant comedic team of Drea Garcia, Jenni Halina, Alex Owens-Sarno and Stephanie Sherry. Not only did they write this hilarious romp (with a little help from their amazing director Kelsea Burke), but they also brought it to life, transporting the audience to those wild and crazy things we did when we were much younger.... full review

Silent Joy, a New Play

bob leggett · June 26, 2019 certified reviewer
Inspired by Dante’s Inferno and adapted from the graphic novel by Zach Beckert, the stage version was written by Melissa Ordaz, with musical score composed by Matt Ordaz. Maggie Dorfman and John Michael Logie were magical in the lead roles, taking us through every emotion available to lead us to the goal. ... full review

REVENGE OF THE ROOTBEER: The Sequel To Night Of The Rootbeer

bob leggett · June 26, 2019 certified reviewer
Michael Shaw Fisher is anything but stupid. Last year he regaled us with the insanely stupid Night of the Root Beer, the show everyone loves to hate. This year he has created a sequel that is every bit as bad, and the audiences loves it even more. DISCLAIMER: No actors were (apparently) harmed in the production of this show. The world is safe until next year . . . or is it?... full review

Human Fountains

bob leggett · June 26, 2019 certified reviewer
This show lifted physical theater to an entirely new level. Now pared down to three performers (Benjamin Tillis, Sam Kaufman and Joel Lowinger), they wasted no time to wowing the audience with their “human interpretation of the Bellagio fountains in Vegas.” The show was magical from start to finish, and told with amazing music and absolutely no words.... full review

DROUGHT

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Kate Radford is from the UK and has brought to the Fringe a remarkable story that combines spoken word with storytelling and music. She is adept at the proper use of the looper, and weaves her stories into the underlying musical soundtrack that she has created with the looper. ... full review

The Last PowerPoint

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Ben Nicholson has created a comic work that on its face looks like a frustrated young salesmen that has been put in his place by an irate tech guru (played by stage manager Pam Noles), who has not been paid for their services. This one is so much fun and was the perfect culmination to an interesting day of fringing.... full review

Meet Me In Mizzery

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Lindsey Mallard is an amazing comedian who has written and delivered one of the best sketch comedy routines I have ever seen.  Not only that, but this woman can SING!  I haven't laughed so much in a long time, and she kept the audience engaged and entertained for an hour. ... full review

Come Back!

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Sacred Fools has mounted some amazing shows since moving to the Broadwater, and this production is one of their best.  Springing from the Serial Killers series, Come Back! has it all - a great story, interesting characters, and the perfect integration of music and words.... full review

ExtraOrdinary

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Chambers Stevens is one of the best playwrights to come out of the Hollywood Fringe Festival.  Since he first came to my attention with his Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts several years back, he has continued to perfect his craft, and Extraordinary is truly the cream of the crop.  Ashley McQueston is sheer perfection and makes us believe this fictional story is her own.... full review

Orangutan

bob leggett · June 25, 2019 certified reviewer
Beginning with the amazing script by Troy Deutsch, the brilliant diretion of Tinks Lovelace and the Tony-worthy performance by Kristina Mueller, this show should win the Top of the Fringe award hands down.... full review
