Good Boys Anonymous

Good Boys Anonymous at the Hollywood Fringe Festival is a good must-see show that completely pulls you into the story. The staging makes you feel like you are actually sitting inside a real support group meeting rather than just watching a play from a distance. It is a really raw, honest, and impactful experience.... full review

A moving, vulnerable, and relatable of what anyone of us -- parent or child --- will experience on the path to becoming who we are today. ... full review

Great acting as these actors invited the audience in to their support group for do-gooders with such honesty and vulnerability as they shared. And one feels they are a part of this group, I certainly recognized myself in some of the sharing. I just want to be bad! Same time next week?... full review

I was fully present throughout each moment of GBA! The writing and actors transformed that theater into a space for deep personal reflection. Each story approached the topic from a unique and authentic angle making it easy to connect with the characters and examine my own relationship with being a good girl. This show will stay with me for a long time. ... full review

A beautiful, moving story about not feeling good enough, full of excellent performances that I can't recommend enough!... full review

Good Boys Anonymous is an extremely heartfelt representation of a universal feeling--being good out of duty. We hear many different stories from people of different walks of life, but they all have something in common...their love or fear keeps them from speaking their mind and trusting their gut in order to just be themselves. And these stories are told with passion and ease by wonderful actors who truly embody this perspective. I loved the setting of the show, how the audience feels like it's part of this support group (because we all could be). And the writing is deep and poetic while grounded and truthful. This play will make you think in all the useful ways!... full review

A moving hour powered along by some great performances.... full review

Creator Bill Prudich has put together a deeply moving and thought-provoking theatrical experience in the guise of a support group for "good boys" (and girls!). If you’ve ever been expected to deny your own feelings, identity, or trauma to "keep the peace” or protect someone who has abused you…you may well identity with more than one of the characters. The simplicity of the staging made the emotional truths ring all the more truly. ... full review

Absolutely loved the simplicity of this show! The characters are wonderfully authentic, and the story is filled with heart. Chances are you'll see a little of yourself in one of them. I did! That's part of what makes it so special.... full review

As a bit of a “good boy” myself, I found the show powerful and relatable! Tightly written and paced, it covers a lot of ground in only an hour. From one moment to the next it’ll have you tense with discomfort and laughing out loud.... full review
