We also loved experiencing the Hollywood Fringe Festival itself! The energy was amazing, with artists and performances spread throughout the area and creativity around every corner. It’s wonderful to see a festival that gives emerging artists like Kel the opportunity to showcase their talents and connect with audiences.
If you get the chance to see Kel Cripe perform, take it.
What I didn't like
Please don’t change a thing. The awkward moments and tech issues only lend to the wonder!
My overall impression
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.
