What I liked

Genius writing, great build, brilliant tie ins & Easter eggs for Shakespeare or just plain theatre lovers alike… & crazy amazing acting!! Beyond Fringe, this show is FAR from over.

What I didn't like

My overall impression

Just WOW!
I can be pretty picky, but this is an absolute Master Class. And I saw the preview performance!
It has actually been a couple weeks now— I know, it’s been a crazy busy month— but even still, while others have come close, this remains hands down the best thing I’ve seen this Fringe!

Nicole & James take you from laughter to tears as you ride the rollercoaster that is these characters existence. And holy pineapple pizza! I LOVE their friendship!!
My heart literally broke watching Nicole — soo incredibly heartfelt, earnest, yet hilarious. And James is just plain genius.

I know “tour de force” tends to be an overused & cliche phrase, but, I mean… with this show, tis just a fact. Wherever you are on the Shakespeare scale, from love to hate to meh, I could care less… this show will rock your world in ways you never saw coming. BRAVA!
