My overall impression
U AND ME AND MY BEST FRIEND P (Gold Medal)
Abby Schachner strikes one as this tornado of neuroses and talent, and her one woman show at the Elephant studio was Ground Zero for me on the night I sat in her audience.
Free form to the gills, Abby bounces off the walls reciting her poems (one for every letter of the alphabet), and sharing her Fairy Tales that show the influence of the Brothers Grimm and Mickey Spillane.
I would find it impossible to believe anyone left that audience without being utterly floored by her writing, utterly exhausted by her performance and eagerly looking forward to spending another night being thoroughly entertained by her.
I SAW 57 SHOWS THIS YEAR AND REVIEWED 43 OF THEM. TO READ ALL MY REVIEWS, AS WELL TO SEE MY PICKS FOR THE BEST OF THE FRINGE, GO TO “THE TVOLUTION.COM” THANK YOU ALL FOR SOME AMAZING SHOWS!
