Dean Evans: My Finest Work

I loved this show!!Dean is an icon and a pillar in our community, I absolutely loved watching them be so agile witty funny and smart. Their honesty and costuming were fantastic and they’re obviously such a talented movement artist and mime. Always such a joy and I felt honored to witness their finest work front row, I wish all fringe shows were this good. ... full review

Dean is a rare artist who transcends their craft. Their incredibly unique physicality, wit, presence, elegance, humanity and artistry transported me to another place and time. ... full review

Dean has this mischievous quality both in their writing and physical storytelling that pulls you into a collective dream before you even realize it's happening. The movement work is stunning!! Gut wrenching, beautiful and very stupid!! A true master of both clown & mime. Engaging every second. Do NOT miss this!!!!... full review

Dean is one of my favorite performers to watch, and one of the most inventive character creators I've seen. Their physicality is incredible, and every tiny movement feels purposeful. I love the balance of whimsy with a mischievous, darker edge. Every creative choice, from the character to the structure of the show, felt carefully considered but never forced. It creates this wonderfully mysterious world that invites the audience to explore without ever feeling lost. A reminder to keep it simple.... full review

MASTER OF MOVEMENT, and a bunch of other stuff!... full review

A wildly inventive solo show that feels both meticulously crafted and completely unhinged. Dean Evans pulls you into a strange, funny, and surprisingly moving world using almost nothing but their body and voice.... full review

This show has been a highlight of the festival for me! I felt fully immersed in Dean's absurd and magical world without any elaborate set pieces or any of us needing to leave our seats. It was equally funny and wondrous. To use a cliche, it really was a masterclass in clown craft. I'll be thinking about it for awhile!... full review
