MATT CHECKOWSKI certified reviewer June 29, 2014
One of the most refreshing nights out in a long time. The performances we're absolutely captivating and a testament to the power of small-room, independent theatre where it feels as if you're actually sitting in the living rooms, cafés and hallways of Eddie's escapades. Some great talent on stage: it felt natural and real, but with enough energy and comedic touch to power through a slightly repetitive second act. Which was well worth it: the lasting impression of the show is an impressionistic portrait of a nice guy trying to find (and force?) his muse. Great all around. ... full review

I loved this show and did not want the 90 minutes to come to an end. India Dupre made me laugh out loud and brought me into her talented world of the art of acting. Great, great show!! I wish there were a few more so I could get friends to go and see it!!... full review

Great play, good acting and writing. I went to see a few of the Fringe festival shows and I liked Eddie the most. The storyline was deep, yet funny and ironic, and I felt the writer was speaking from the heart as I watched the main character, Eddie, searching for himself among the three women in his life. I was impressed by the layers and complexity written into the characters. I also went into the theatre thinking it was going to be straight drama, but I also laughed at the wittiness of the characters. ... full review

Eddie is a story told by fantastic actors (Adam Hale, India Dupre, Kimberly Alu, Desi Givanova) where even the silent moments tell you their secrets. You forget you're watching a play because they bring you into their world, with their permission, to experience the ups and downs of learning and life. It is written and directed by an extremely talented individual, David Robinette, who successfully incorporates the story with raw emotions, where in one moment, one laughs aloud and in the next, one holds their breath. Bravo! ... full review

We attended the June 20th performance of EDDIE. EDDIE is a fantastic experience! Extremely well written and acted. A roller-coaster ride that's sweet, sexy, heat wrenching, visually shocking, and with tons of laughs. This play moves. Every minute has something to offer - pitch perfect performances, quick and witty dialogue exchanges, dark-comedy laughs throughout, beautifully awkward moments between Eddie and the women in his life, and the crazy shocking visual near the end... I won't spoil it, but it had half the audience averting their eyes, and the entire theater in an uproar. Hilarious! Do yourself a favor, plays like this don't come around often. ... full review

This was a great show, very intriguing and dramatic. The storytelling was my favorite part... At the end of the show when all the actors came to the stage I was surprised when only four people were standing in front of me. During the show Eddie speaks of relatives; as well as Charlie, speaking of her parents. The relationships they have and stories they tell about these people build such strong images and paint a fantastic picture for you, that at the end of the show you expect those characters to be standing there with them. Even in the first scene the character Nat is described with a simple hand gesture about his hair. You never actually see Nat in the play, but you have a distinct image of him whenever spoken about. The way that they por... full review

A brilliantly written play. It's touching yet funny! Makes you reflect on life and that you're really not alone. Everyone has their hurt and pain that they carry in their hearts but it's up to you and your attitude in life is how your future will ride out. The actor's are excellent!! Good choice in music. I would go see it again! ... full review
