This heartfelt deep dive into the high highs and hideous lows of a child actor's life in Hollywood really got to me! Edward KO in the lead is serving up a fantastic performance. He's pure emotion, commitment, humor, poignancy. And his ensemble and direction (Yas KCT!) are collaborating with real presence and energy to make beautiful music and tell an important story. Big thumbs up for the whole team!...

This show manages to accomplish the rare feat of being incredibly fun and poignant at the same time. Ed K-O delivers a knockout performance that you have to see! He makes you laugh, he makes you cry, and in between he sings the hell out of some classic songs. Not to be out done Margaret provides a wonderful performance as well. The band and singers are sensational and will have you dancing in your seat. ...

Amazing. Funny. Captivating. A cast full of STARS. I love the use of audience, on-screen visuals, etc. The STORY. 10/10. Loved Jermell’s SLZ TV bits. Edward is a GEM. BRAVO!...

Every aspect of this show was high quality. A captivating script, incredible actors, and a fricken live band! Fool in the Pool really pushes the boundaries of what can be accomplished at Fringe.
I came into this expecting a fun karaoke night, and I got SOOO much more. ...
