The Magic Computer

Kel Cripe's non-binary, clean-cut humor is relatable, heartfelt, and absolutely touching. Through a "magic computer" filled with awkward childhood photos and memories, they take the audience on a journey of self-discovery that had everyone laughing one minute and dabbing at tears the next. Kel's personality is incredibly endearing. They share their story with honesty and vulnerability, while laughing at themselves in such a loving way that you can't help but laugh right along with them. The show is narrated through what feels like a queer PowerPoint presentation, complete with hilarious photos and stories from their past. Thank you, Kel Cripe, for sharing your journey, your bravery, and your undeniable wit with us. ... full review

Greaaat show! So many laughs, a few tears (or more). So relatable yet unique. We are taken on a journey, through so many pictures that it feels almost like a movie. It's vulnerable, it's fun, it's informative. You feel honored to have seen this show. ... full review

The Magic Computer is a fun and touching story of someone finding themselves within their gender identity. It touches on serious themes but does so with such levity and humor. ... full review
