Big Maestro & Little Cello Boy

The physical comedy in Big Maestro is top notch! I felt like I was watching something from another era. Alex (Big Maestro) and Peter (Little Cello Boy) play off each other in such a chaotic and fun way - they build the tension of the show in a way where you can't wait to see what's next, but you are also terrified to see what's next (for Peter's sake). ... full review

Parents should not force their children to play the cello, and this is the most entertaining proof yet! ... full review

I didn’t have any expectations, and I was totally caught off guard. It was juicy, interactive, and super funny, but also pretty weird. I’ve seen lots of small theater shows, but this one is definitely the most hilariously bizarre.... full review

Hilarious, great commitment! These two clowns are wonderful and this is them at their silliest. Clown Whiplash.... full review

I've never quite seen horror comedy on stage. But this has all the thrills and chills.Fantastic!!!!! Very inventive. And the gore is just right. The two actors are really skilled. The maestro is bombastic and commanding in a way that really compels the audience through the peice hilariously. The cellist is truly gifted so the music he plays live is suprisingly transporting, which makes the piece even more thrilling. Such beautiful talent here. ... full review

Comedic absurdity at its finest (mayhem stew with devastating reverb).... full review

Loved the show. Very unique and unpredictable. Also - some great music to pair with the comedy and some cool mixed media elements. So creative. ... full review

Feral and terrific. Alex Derderian has total command of the room and I loved being at the mercy of this bonkers hilarious psycho. Peter Levine's cello playing is gorgeous. ... full review

I laughed SO hard. Hilarious, erotic, somewhat scary. Gorgeous cello playing by the boy. Going to have beautiful nightmares of the Maestro! ... full review
