Fun concept! I liked how Alan combined different passions into one show, and was able to tie them all together. The personal video was a nice touch and his interactions with audience were excellent.
What I didn't like
The structure of the show was explained to us at the top, but it also just did not make much sense until the end. I found myself not connecting to the sketch characters as much because I was focused on the magic storyline.
My overall impression
Alan Giles begins the show with a hilarious video of him as a child, performing a magic show for his family; he has come to the Hollywood Fringe Festival for his redemption, to complete his failed magical act. In the show he also interludes with 5 different sketch characters. Alan stays charismatic and funny throughout the show and works well with the audience, at times allowing for an interactive experience. I enjoyed this show very much and we were entertained throughout, with a great finale.
