My overall impression

A hilarious and unique theatrical experience. A melodramatic and speech-impeded private eye narrates his own film noir, casting the audience as all other parts- from whores to cops to bodies- along the way. Of course the chink in this plan is that not every audience member is witty and willing, but Deanna (Butt) is quick enough to handle whatever comes her way. I appreciated that she effectively brings the entire crowd together as one theatrical ensemble. Once the culprit is caught, there’s an odd little coda that doesn’t really seem of a piece with the rest- but no matter. Fringe exists for a show like this. (And there’s just one more performance, 6/24, so grab tickets now!) fringeblog.webs.com
