Welcome to Los Angeles, guys! This is one hell of an introduction!
Dating: Adults Embracing Failure is everything a Fringe show should be: a simply-but-well-staged production that relies on a superb script and a powerhouse cast to deliver an emotional wallop. And boy, does it deliver! Josh and Lindy had me transfixed right from the beginning as they weaved together tales of love and loss, heartbreak and redemption. Do yourself a favor and don't miss this show. You're welcome....

One of my favorite shows at Fringe this year, and a great testament to the simplicity of putting two good actors on stage together and letting them do their thing. Some of the scenes are a bit (purposely) over the top, but there's a level of honesty in each moment that makes them funnier than just the writing. The quiet moments are beautifully, eerily quiet, and before you know it, you're feeling intensely for some of these people. Definitely a vote for Top of Fringe....

Such a charming, heartfelt, funny and well done show! Lindy and Josh flawlessly embody multiple characters - all of which are layered, charming and sincere. These two are an incredible new asset to the L.A. Theatre Community! Can't wait to see where else their creative talents will take them!

This is such a wonderfully funny and original show! Josh Lanzet and Lindy Voeltner are comedic geniuses who play off each other exceptionally well. Both actors are unafraid to be honest and truly tackle the nitty gritty nuances that make up relationships. The result is both heartwarming and hilarious! Expect to walk away aching from laughter and pondering what it means to be truly intimate with someone....

I had to wait the entire festival to see this show. And it was incredibly worth it. I had no idea what to expect, and that was awesome! Lanzet and Voeltner took the stage and from the first lines out of their mouths until the last, they had me. With some expert direction from Andy Eninger, these two comedians had us laughing many times, crying a couple of times, and secretly grinning to ourselves at others. It is such a pleasure to watch two people who work so well together play on stage and tell some of the best little stories about love, dating and heartbreak you will see at the festival this year. Truly a must see, especially if they get extended!...

Well done!
Not since George & Gracie have two people worked soo well together -- on the page AND on the stage!
Lanzet & Voeltner bring an undeniable honesty thru their characters & relationships. Their brand of comedy has so much depth & flavor that you gladly go with them on this journey. Tis no wonder they were extended for TWO MONTHS! GO SEE IT! ...
