THUG TUNNEL

I am very happy with seeing Thug Tunnel, and highly recommend making it one of your choices for Fringe 2016. You'll enjoy the music as it lampoons Jim Steinman-esque 80s tropes, standard musical theater, and even a bit of opera in describing its characters. There are plenty of laughs and great one-liners (something missing from a lot of plays and films nowadays). There's enough drama to give the humor an appropriate weight, but the show never takes itself too seriously and the sadder elements are used appropriately to balance the stakes of the narrative. This is a team of hard workers, help keep em going so that they can continue to produce more great musicals in the future.... full review

I'm a really verbose guy, but there's no other way to put this: F*CKING. GENIUS. Go!!!!... full review

It’s a rare quality when there is no clearly defined star of a performance. When an ensemble cast comes together in perfect synergy to sell a show that you can’t help but buy. The story of Thug Tunnel flows seamlessly into song transforming into soundtrack powered by an awesome live band that you’d buy tickets to see without the rest. If you know Robot Teammate then you’ll be initially surprised as they eschew musical interlude in favor of setting an exhaustive tempo that doesn’t let up until you run out of Tunnel to Thug. The writing is syncopated poetry with 16-bit tonal range. The choreography gives meaning to the spatial beg of a show that is cast in darkness. From Stabby Rick’s incredibly catchy, mic-dropping Collection Time to Panther... full review

I'll see anything Robot Teammate does – end of story.... full review

YAAAAS! Best show in Fringe! I'm actually moving out of Los Angeles soon, but if RT&AP were to put up another production, we're coming back just for them! Well written, well performed, very well put together. One of my favorite things about Thug Tunnel is thought behind the music/lyrics and creative usage of their costumes/props. Just awesome sauce.... full review

A wild, funny, well-written and designed show with a talented group of energetic and singer/dancer/actors , energetic and relishing in the darkish humor...strong ensemble altogether, standouts for me were Nikki Muller and Kat Primeau. Music rocked. ... full review

The perfect length, a zippy and riveting ride--equal parts hilarious and touching. Can't wait to see what these talented folks do next.... full review

THUG TUNNEL delivers with its foot-tapping melodies and energetic cast. If you are looking for a feel good pop musical featuring operatic villainous queens, radioactive yogurt-addicted tomboys and garbage gourmet cooks , you will not be disappointed. This tunnel is populated by a terrific, non-disposable talented cast. ... full review

This was a great original musical with all star performances and a really fun score and book. We loved it!!!!... full review
