What I liked

The script takes such a wild turn that works so well. The strength of the actors and the spectacular direction and script of Ann Noble keep our attention and keep us guessing as to where it will end up. The ending also is one of the most beautiful endings I’ve seen in a long time.

What I didn't like

N/A

My overall impression

What starts as a noir clown show becomes something much different, in a great way. Dead Man stars an assortment of talented clowns who know where to find their laughs before taking an unexpected turn that hits you right in the solar plexus. Funny, charming, heartbreaking, and inspiring, Dead Man is a Fringe must-see.
