King of Kong: A Musical Parody

One of the best hours at Fringe. Just ridiculous and absolutely hysterical. Catchy songs wonderfully and energetically performed. Literally did not stop laughing the entire time. Love both of the artists. You guys were incredible and so much fun. Go see this show!!... full review

This show is just bloody, glorious, rediculous fun. It's the show you wish you had made and were in but watching it you can't imagine you ever could be because the two people doing it do such an incredible job being amazing at every single part and song. Silly, perfect, simple, great.... full review

Such a clever show! Fantastic actors performing delightful and hilarious original pieces of music.... full review

I loved this show! Lauren & Brendan are so funny, and the show is written so well. The show is funny whether or not you've seen the documentary, probably a little funnier if you have seen it. Loved it, the entire audience was laughing throughout.... full review

If you have seen the King of Kong documentary, then definitely go see this! It's a solid production with good singing - when I could hear Lauren Van Kurin, her voice was lost quite a bit in the loud piped-in music - high energy and actors who have a thorough understanding of parody. If you have never seen the documentary, you will probably miss out on about 80% of the jokes. It is a solid piece, so there will be aspects to enjoy, but this is definitely intended for an audience already familiar with the movie.... full review

If you're sick and tired of watching Brendan Hunt and Lauren Van Kurin kick ass on stage, skip this show. It will only make you sicker and more tired. But if you think these two are fantastically talented (or haven't seen either of them before), go see them do a two person, quick-change comedy musical based on one of the better documentaries out there. It's simply fantastic. Written by Amber Ruffin (who got whisked away by a paying gig. Lame!)and Lauren Van Kurin, the script and songs are about as funny as can be. And watching Hunt and Van Kurin tear through it will be one the highlights of your Fringe this year. I promise. DISCLAIMER: Both of these rock stars are in my show. But to be fair, I saw this show before I even knew Laure... full review

Do yourself a favor and go watch King of Kong on DVD (or streaming digital on Amazon) and then GO SEE THIS SHOW. Brilliant brilliant brilliant. I don't even know where to start. The character parodies, the perfect musical numbers. You will be thrilled you went!... full review

The feat of these amazing performers is matched by the hilarity of the material. I would watch these two play parcheesi, but to see them athletically bound through this cavalcade of wonderful songs and hysterical characters is an unparalleled delight. See this (and see the wonderful doc on which it was based.)... full review

An extremely talented cast of two whips their way through a dizzying array of characters and costume changes with ease and hilarity. The songs are catchy and some are spot-on in capturing the overblown bombast of the 80s; "Referee" in particular sounds frighteningly like someone captured the music of January 1987 in a bottle. Definitely worth checking out!... full review

Wow! Wow! Wow! I feel lucky I got to see this show. Top to bottom it's hilarious and gushing with talent. Is it weird to compare it to "Book of Mormon?" Because I just did. Scaled down, of course, but maybe really seriously just as funny. And 1/10th the price (for now). Holy sh*t I laughed and laughed and clapped. It's SO SUPER GREAT!! ... full review
