Endgame

Basically, all of those people who say JUST GO SEE THIS? They. Are. Dead. On. Seriously, people. This man can write a fiercely tight, multi-layered tale that comes in at 1/2-hour (!!!) and deserves no spoilers. The actors who bring it home are superb. Dude. Awesome. ... full review

I went to see Endgame today at The Complex on Santa Monica Bd. David Wisehart was there of course, the writer, producer, director, composer, lyricist, and of course the offical greeter!

A short, clever one-act, David Wisehart's ENDGAME is a bite-sized, yet filling theatrical experience. At barely 30 minutes, it will fit easily into your Fringe schedule and is certainly worth the time to see it. ... full review

Simple, sweet, and with a delightful twist at the end, this is a theatrical treat for fans of "No Exit" and other existential riddles. I thought I knew what was coming but was pleasantly surprised to find myself wrong. A charming addition to the fringe melange, it's easy to fit into the schedule at less than 30 minutes.... full review
