TARA DONOVAN certified reviewer June 06, 2016
This show was fun! Definitely a good time. It was at times cheesy, funny, creepy, moving, and overall- a good time. Congrats on an imaginative production!... full review

Why do I love Fringe? Sure, there are one-man/woman shows, comedies, musicals galore. And they're often dynamite, fantastic and genius. But every once in a while, something comes along that REALLY tries to be different, unique, strange and unusual. This year, you're already part of one of those. Because Shine Labs has been quietly watching you from the shadows--and you're a perfect candidate to learn "The Truth". All you need to do is accept your chance to be a test subject during this year's Fringe festival and off you go. Really, that's all I want to tell you about this particular experience. I mean, yes, it's theater--sort of. It's really a lot more than that. It's sort of a LARP (Live Action Role Play) experience. It's sort of a w... full review

A highly enjoyable and unique experience. A day later, I am still thinking back to things witnessed and interactions had. I was moved, amused, and occasionally a little bit confused. I highly recommend checking out The Truth.... full review

I'd dare to suggest this experience for people solo rather than going with a group of your friends. It makes the message that much more powerful. It was a really fun journey and different than most other traditional shows. Love that it had a purpose though; it wasn't just art for art sake.... full review

This was one of my top picks for this year’s Fringe. Knowing that the writer goes to the same haunts and other immersive experiences as I do made me really excited that some of those influences would be used..and they were. This is one of the better truly immersive experiences. You walk around Hollywood, but this is not a touristy walking tour. You first meet with the doctors from Shine Labs and they tell you about how we were selected for a reason (they say they were watching us and all we do). Then we were told to use the headphones and a soundtrack that is given to you. This will help you read people’s thoughts. On your adventure, you come into contact with various people and they tell separate parts of the story. Some people in our... full review

Despite a few muddled/confusing elements of the plot, the performers were very engaging and made the hour long show feel like nothing at all. It was funny, heartfelt, intriguing, and something special. An immersive experience like nothing else at the Fringe, it's worth a look if you've got the cash.... full review
