NAPOLEON'S WH*RE SISTER

Wildyly entertaining and fiercely intelligent! Very funny show, with a strong ensemble; Shannon Corbeil's script is smart writing; powerful messages coated with humor. The show pokes fun at the history of misogyny. Style similar to The West Wing, I think - taking a subject of serious manner and flipping it (or highlighting a certain aspect) and making it funny with comedic characters. Both deadpan and slapstick humor, each character gets us laughing.... full review

I loved it. We laughed. A lot. Plus groaned and moaned at all the history that feels like it's repeating, presented in a way that encouraged audience involvement and catharsis. These four talent actors each nailed their role in a deeply funny way. ... full review

Napoleon's Whore Sister has a cast of four women with incredible comedic timing and fully realized characters and performance. Hats off to the Prince who stepped into the role at today's performance and NAILED IT. Loved the mix of modern and period. One of the more enjoyable experiences I've had at Fringe this year.... full review
