CHRISTOPHER ROQUE certified reviewer June 23, 2013
I found myself smiling from the moment the show began until it ended. The concept (a two man, one-man show was immediately hilarious to me) and execution were tremendous. This show is a perfect example of what a fringe show should be; people taking chances with "strange" ideas and going for it full throttle. It was such a positive experience and I would recommend the show to anyone.... full review

One Man Show: A Duet is a fantastic piece of theater that not only makes you laugh (hard and frequently) but is a wonderful example of craft with purpose. The writing, acting, and directing are all in sync and streamlined to deliver a very meticulously thought out show that primarily appears off-the-cuff. This show makes you laugh both because Tim's plight is often too real and at the same time totally absurd. The show strikes the balance between these two realities resulting a charmingly funny and touching glimpse inside the head of a man no one should probably ever date.... full review

I did not find this show funny. At all. http://fringeblog.webs.com/... full review

What a fun and unique idea. So well written and executed. Clever. Lots of imagination. The hour went by in what seemed like 20 minutes. TJ and Mark are ridiculously talented; Joe's direction is sharp and fresh. Highly recommended.... full review

A fast and funny night of theater. The show is fun and silly without being stupid or resorting to cheap laughs. Mark and TJ give engaging and likeable performances and seem game for anything. Their energy and chemistry is among the best I've see at the Fringe. My one quibble with the show is that it does not really seem to be about its premise. The two characters talk about Tim as if he is a separate entity, and the show doesn't seem to remember that the two narrators are actually the same person, who is actually Tim. Regardless, the show is funny, well-written, and a lot of fun. Highly recommended.... full review
