CASSI JERKINS certified reviewer June 11, 2014
My friends and I had a great time! The performers were outstanding; and the writing was really good too which I was not expecting. There were plays that had us dying of laughter and bursting into applause. The ones that we weren't crazy about (which were only a couple) were over before it could drain the energy of the show. I really recommend this show, it's very entertaining.... full review

I wish sometimes I could just make people go and see certain plays. I can't. So I'll write this review instead and tell everyone that asks "what's good?" that this is a MUST SEE! I've seen 12 plays (at the time of writing this) at the fringe and this is my pick so far. So, you understand the concept right? It's 25 very short plays in an hour. Cool. But the concept isn't what makes it a MUST SEE. It's purely the content. Being from London and having see A LOT of theater, some of these 2 min plays had me laughing, scorning and even crying! Honestly, a good few of these wondrous 2 min plays I would not only pay 12 dollars to see on their own, I would prefer to see than some shows I've seen at the fringe this year or even theater in general.

Attending a 25 PPH show is a rite of passage at the Fringe, and this year's offering is the perfect one to experience what is definitely one of the best of Fringe traditions. See the rest of the review at Examiner.com.... full review

25 plays per hour is a fantastic and very tight show! The performers were all spot on and the show went by so quickly that I left wishing there was more! Congrats!!... full review

I've seen pretty much every version of this show, and even co-directed one two years ago, so I was delightfully surprised when I found myself cackling and spontaneously applauding in the middle of scenes. That's how good the cast is of this show: I can watch a piece I've personally blocked out before, and still be riveted. Hats off to Courtney Bell and Corey Lynn Howe for injecting such energy into the production. And particular shout-outs to Jim Martyka, Ben Atkinson, Lee Pollero, and Jacob Smith; their commitment to every role they play, no matter how silly, is what keeps these scenes fresh. Highly recommended for a fun Fringe evening. ... full review
KURT GARDNER certified reviewer June 27, 2014
With a time limit like this, you just know you’re in for a show in which the actors madly dash around the stage, inhabiting multiple characters and making lightning-fast costume changes. And that’s exactly what happens. What’s not expected, however, is the extremely high quality of the material, well-written by multiple scribes and delivered by a charismatic cast.... full review
