I have done administrative work all of my life, so this play intrigued me from the start. The fact that they could present three complete plays in only 30 minutes was a major coup, and all three stories were truly relatable. Hats off to Off the Page Productions, which has presented these three amazing stories.... full review

Chrissy's victory over drugs was inspiring and informative, and I am glad I got the chance to see it. This was my first encounter with a former meth addict, and her story was truly enlightening. I also enjoyed it when she sang, and would have loved to hear more of that. ... full review

April Wish has an amazing way of looking at life, and she conveys that sweetness in her show. Putting a burgeoning career on hold to create a family may sound like a bad idea, but Wish showed us that it can be very rewarding. Being a parent of three and a grandparent of 13, I could totally relate to what it takes to parent, especially those times where your partner is nowhere to be found. It can be a stressing time, but she showed us the rewards of putting our children first. ... full review

I immediately fell in love with Katie Oliver the second she appeared on stage. This two hander handles the serious question of choice – whether you go the “safe” route or go out on a limb and follow your heart. We won’t tell you what she choice, but the journey to that decision is what drives the show. Hats off also to Dingani Beza, who proved to be a worthy companion on this fun ride.... full review

Who says you can't tell a great story in less than 30 minutes?  I would have seen this show no matter what because one of earliest fringeships, David Haverty, was involved.  He turned out to be just the tip of the iceberg when it came to the awesomeness of this production. ... full review

Jannica Olin is a gifted performer with such a powerful and personal story that the audience feels every emotion that she does. It was an honor to learn about the life-changing event that happened to her, and how she was able to turn it all around. Sweden’s loss is our gain, and I couldn’t be more proud of her, and the remarkable work that she and director Jessica Lynn Johnson put into this show.... full review

Pure storytellers are a rare breed, and Dandy Darkly is one of the best, reminiscent of one of my favorites from the Renaissance Faire, the late Mark Lewis.  He has won countless awards from fringes worldwide, and he showed why during this non-stop southern gothic tale.  He controlled the audience from start to finish, keeping them engaged and entranced in every word he spoke.  This show was truly a treat.... full review

If there was an award for the most elaborate and complex show at Fringe, then this one would win hands down.  The cast treated us to a pre-show outside the venue, which spilled over to the venue until it was time for the show to begin.  The cast is uber-talented and were surprisingly great vocalists, not to mention the incredible musicianship of Luke Medina, who accompanied every song on his guitar. ... full review

Have we truly reached the point where it doesn't matter what the candidates believe but only how well they are known?  This show examines that question with an irreverent look at Presidential elections, and features an all-star ensemble cast to achieve that vision.... full review

The Fringe has always had a few outrageous mashups in its previous nine years, but this year's tribute to the story of King Kong as told through the music of Hamilton is truly a work of art.   Adam Korenman has written truly hilarious and powerful lyrics that transform those Hamilton musical numbers into a well staged musical that is worthy of being on Broadway.... full review
