Slay Me

Dark. Hilarious. Moving. A little scary. This is one of my favorites at Fringe so far this year. Veronica Rosas will knock you on your butt with this vulnerable, deranged, compelling performance. Always a fan of a solo show with a single character of such potency. It's a little breathtaking watching her spiral, recover a little, spiral some more and make cookies the entire time. One of the best individual performances at Fringe this year.... full review

A gut punch of a play, "Slay Me" walks the line of dark humor thanks to a fearless performance by Veronica Rosas. Both hilarious and heart-breaking, Rosas anchors her comedy with a vulnerable edge. All leading to one of the best endings you'll see at Fringe.... full review

Slay Me is a wild, smart ride with a magnetic solo performance. The direction is especially sharp, using simple garment pieces naturally scattered around a messy bedroom, the show cleverly shifts scenes without ever breaking the flow. Veronica Rosas somehow manages to be both hilariously manic and totally endearing. It’s raw, witty, and unexpectedly moving.... full review

Incredibly funny, intense, emotional and clever. This one-woman show moves fast and touches every possible emotion and leaves us in suspense throughout the show. Wonderfully acted and excellently directed. I drove over an hour to see this show and it was worth fighting the traffic and burning the gas!... full review

Raw, unapologetically bleak, and laugh-out-loud funny. The show has as many contradictions as its central character, performed with startling ferocity and vulnerability by Veronica Rosas, but that's not a bug - it's a feature. The script is razor-sharp and effectively grapples with aging, inadequacy, and the maddening desire to be wanted by men in a patriarchal system built to inevitably reject you. ... full review

A Must-See Experience!! Just watched this show and I’m honestly still processing how good it was. It was emotional, hilarious, deeply relatable, and so well executed from start to finish. Veronica was amazing as always, the writing was sharp, and there were moments that made me laugh out loud followed by ones that hit unexpectedly deep. It’s definitely one of those shows that stays with you. Highly recommend watching!... full review

I love how the show draws attention to the fact that women do not disappear after the age of 30. I see this show as a “coming of age” of sorts - which I hesitate to say because we associate that term with coming out of childhood and into adulthood. However, as human beings, we don’t - we shouldn’t - ever stop evolving and learning and growing. I saw the show as a woman who “comes of age” and into her own by having to face the realities of one chapter of her life and how it all fits into who she is becoming in the next chapter. She wrestles with, and asks herself, “what now?” only to realize that the answer, perhaps, comes a little too late. This show asks what does it mean to live, to exist, and to be wanted as a woman when the world around ... full review
