Callie Ott is an absolute force. I had the pleasure of experiencing this show during the Fringe Festival, and when I found out there were more days listed, I immediately booked 3 more tickets to bring my friends! The storytelling, the music, her voice, her vulnerability… ahhh. I’m tearing up just typing this!!! Bravo, Callie Ott. Thank you for sharing your art with all of us, thank you so very much. ... full review

RA'SHAWN JOHNSON certified reviewer July 01, 2024
A fearless, wise and all around necessary piece of theater. Callie has crafted something that is both incredibly personal and all too relatable. By way of familiar horror tropes, she infuses a one-woman show with pathos and pain to bring a tragic and ultimately triumphant story to the stage. It’s brilliant. ... full review

It is one of the great Cliches of Creativity that "comedy is derived from tragedy." However, it remains a cliche because it is very frequently true. Make a list of your favorite comedians, actors or performers and there is likely a tumultuous soil of traumatic experiences through which the seeds of their genius grew into irreverent or hilarious insights about human behavior. That was a long-winded way of establishing why Callie Ott's one-woman-show "Final Girl" is brilliant, deeply sad, hilarious and an absolute must-watch if you have the opportunity to do so. Through the course of an hour, she rips the bandages off of emotional wounds for our entertainment (and reflection) through song, dance, rap and multiple character portrayals that ... full review

Callie Ott is a powerhouse performer who can easily shift gears from laugh out loud comedy to drama rooted in real life trauma to singing to rap, and all in the same one woman musical! FINAL GIRL: THE MUSICAL has heart, real life horror and songs that make you laugh, feel and think about what it is to be a real life final girl. Callie has a true love of horror films and knows how to exploit every aspect of the genre to maximize the drama, suspense, heart and yes, the comic relief! ... full review

BENJAMIN SCHWARTZ certified reviewer June 26, 2024
One of the best one-person shows I've seen at fringe over the years. Callie shares her harrowing experience wrapped in levity and so much sincerity. The songs are extremely catchy, which Callie nails with ease. Great comedic timing. You will be both moved and thoroughly entertained during this snappy musical. A fantastic show all around.... full review
