My overall impression

I don’t usually write reviews but felt the need to here. I happened upon this show not as a friend of the cast or anything like that so consider this review unadulterated. I loved this show. I felt the music was really good to the point of still singing some of the songs the next morning. At the beginning of the show (I’m assuming) the director came on stage and informed the audience that this was an open dress tech and could possibly stop the show. There were technical problems with some mics but that was about it. The show itself was very daring in it’s staging and concept which I’m assuming is the whole point of the Fringe Festival, to stretch the boundaries of theater arts. I won’t spoil the essence of it by describing too much in detail though. The cast was very good and some of the actors were exceptional. The pacing was great, it went from one great song/scene to the next; not one cheesy song in the lot. I actually got emotional during the end. No intermission and exactly an hour. I’ll probably be back to see it again after normal kinks are worked out. All in all a very enjoyable evening/show from beginning to end. Highly recommended. A-
