This show is a must see! Equal parts touching, hilarious and brilliant. ... full review

I knew that a show from the mind of Spencer Wright was going to make me cry with laughter and challenge my perspective in a new way; but I was not prepared for the professionalism and polish the cast and crew brought to this performance! If you are local to LA or making a trip out for the Fringe Festival, A Funeral at the Peanut Patch is a must see!... full review

This show was thoughtful, creative, and hilarious. Both actors brought such a lively energy to their performances and I absolutely loved the interplay with the puppet Opossum “Gusth”. The writing was sharp and emotional, gifting the show some really memorable moments... full review

Absolutely stunning production. Knowing how little time there is to set-up/strike, getting everything up and running in such a short amount of time makes the show that much more impressive. The story felt universally relatable, but also held such a specific dynamic that really pulled the show together.... full review

This play is a well acted family drama involving talking roadkill and peanuts. I found myself enchanted by the lead characters bickering and quippy dialogue. And the possum puppet (Gus) added some charm to the story that i wish he appeared in more scenes. Overall if you’re looking for a good play to turn your brain off this is the one. ... full review

It's not every day that merch captures my feelings towards a show, but in the words of A Funeral at the Peanut Patch, I am definitely Nutz 4 Nutz! This show is a clever, original serio-comedy about siblings and their peanut farm. Add in the poignant issue about how humans are taking over animals' homes/lands and there you have it: a two-hander with a real message. As for the messenger, well, hands up (er, hats off) to Gus(th). ... full review

This show was inventive, funny, and uniquely of its own world. One to watch in the Fringe sphere!... full review

Quite an impressive piece of theatre. Every aspect of the show was well thought out and perfectly executed. I’ve seen my share of original one-act plays and this was by far the best, most comprehensively put together production.... full review
