This play is not to be forgotten. It strikes quick and hard and without apology. I know it made an impression because I'm currently offline for a week's vacation but knew I had to leave my review. ...

A true dark comedy through and through about one of the most dysfunctional families you'll ever see on stage. Snappy directing and standout performances - notably from Davis and Legget, with Legget's exit as one of the funniest moments I've seen from this year's fringe. No spoilers, as the story takes some serious turns!...

Sure, it's fucked up and gross and irreverent and shocking, but what if it was also funny? This play manages to pack more emotions (for the players and the audience) than I've experienced in the real world over 35 years. Big ups to the writing, performances, and pacing of the show for managing to couch some BIG payoffs into a show that manages to stay one dirty little step ahead of the crowd for 75 straight minutes. Move over, Chekov's Gun, because this show has Chekov's Everything. Including a gun.
If you're looking for a rollercoaster of tight writing, powerhouse performances, jaw-dropping moments, and belly laughs that will make you feel weird about yourself, this is it. This is the show....

Dark Comedy
This show is so f*cked up and I LOVED IT. Deliciously dark and gripping, had me on the edge of my seat. One of the most twisted shows I’ve ever seen at Fringe and I am legitimately obsessed. Pam hit this one out of the park, you will squirm and gasp and you will absolutely love it. Go see it as soon as you can. ...

This is the best Eberhardt show I've ever seen, and I'm IN another Eberhardt show at the moment! Genuinely shocking, scary, and hilarious. Loved this play and I'm so proud of everyone involved....

Dark chaos personified in all the best ways, Family Fries is anchored by its equally deranged and fantastic writing, stellar direction, and committed and talented ensemble. Easily one of the best shows of this Fringe. ...
