What I liked

I love watching movies, and this is like a movie!! It’s also like a play. I was in a play once about TV so I’m very familiar with making the stage seem like a screen. When I was a kid there would be these movies shown Saturday afternoons on Fox 53. This was a pretty long time ago, when tv sets generally only had about 4 channels. I’m not kidding. Four channels! So it was big deal when a movie was shown on tv in the afternoon. Fox always showed old movies, which bummed me out cause I was probably 8 and wanted to watch “ET” but instead they showed “Gone With The Wind” (boring). Well this Saturday I saw a play and they made it seem like I was watching a movie that was even older than GWTW, but it was on stage (not boring)! I think I could appreciate this play because I’m an adult now (and also cause I was in a play about TV). Maybe I appreciated it cause it was perfectly cast, directed, written and performed??!?!?!? This is a veritable who’s who of Fringe but somehow they balance each other out to create a veritable who’s who of awesome! Everyone stopped watching TV and started watching the internet, but after seeing this play I’m pretty sure everyone will stop watching the internet and start watching plays.

What I didn't like

I had to wait the whole play before I could eat Vivianna’s food. Other than that, solid show.

My overall impression

Well, written, cast and directed. It will be extended, so go see it. And get some grilled cheese bites from Vivianna on the patio afterwards.
