CHRISTOPHER KESSLER certified reviewer June 15, 2018
Derren Brown meets Monty Python. It is a unique and entertaining blend of slapstick and quantum mechanics, illusions and time distortions, mentalism and teleportation, hypnosis and the destruction of the universe. The audience is involved in the performance to such a degree that the final predictions are so strong that some eventually suspect each other of being confederates. It is worth the price of admission to see the expressions on their faces after the final curtain when they realize that they aren’t. Highly recommended. ... full review

What would happen if you put a clown and a mentalist in a modest hadron collider? This fantastic show! There's something for the brainiacs, something for the laymen (lemon?), something for everyone!... full review

A fun, interdimensional romp that explains the universe in lemon's terms. Thoroughly entertaining, with just the right amount of audience participation, plus a surprise or two for good measure.... full review

GOD I LOVED THIS SHOW. It's incredibly smart, wonderfully performed, clever without being full of itself and willing to utilize many disparate styles and techniques in order to create an evening unlike any other. This is what Fringe is about. This is what vaudeville should be. This has opened my mind as to what can be done with theatre.... full review

In a delightfully wacky hour of physical comedy, mentalism, hypnotism and slapstick these two gentleman manage to throw a little bit of everything vaudevillian into the mix. But, wait... there’s more. They touch on Quantum Entanglement Theory and what exactly Shrodinger’s Cat means to us as we go through our daily, average lives. (Oh, I had to look up a few things after the show, for sure. I left his show wanting to know more about the numerous things being thrown around during all the comic craziness.) It's a dizzying hour of fun!... full review

A really wonderful show about a clown giving a lecture on his machine that brings back a German lecturer from the 1800s. What ensues is a magnificent mix of slapstick, silliness, magic and hypnotism. I loved it. There were a lot of kids there in the audience who just ate it up, but it was perfect for adults.I smiled the whole way through. A MUST SEE. ... full review

We live in a pretty cynical society sometimes, so it's truly charming to experience something that leans so earnestly into silly As a child of Python & Douglas Adams I certainly appreciated the show Great stuff guys, thanks so much & all the best with future work ;-)... full review
