Another poignant and creative work by the Puckwit Gang.
Makes the point without preaching. Witty, strong performances. Cohesive story. If you liked chimpskin last year you will like this collaborative piece....

Dr. B proves we will believe anything. Con men will always take advantage of the weak and uneducated. A media savvy con man sits in a position of power, silently watching the unimaginable.
Sound familiar?
As bizarre as this true story is, this performance reminds us there are no easy answers to our most troubling questions.

Fantastic! A cooky story about a quack's ride during the depression era America, chaperoned along by good 'ol American bluegrass music and southern hospitality. As any good doctor would say, take this show and call America in the morning!...

The performance was wonderfully unexpected, well written, well performed and cohesively directed. It felt familiar, as if it were unraveling deeper notions of the characters in my own life. All the while it was extremely theatrical with an ambitious group of spot on cues. I would recommend this play to all. ...

The Dangerous Cures of Dr. B is an example of the other type of Fringe show: a show that uses humor to get across a very serious point. In this case, the humor serves to deflate the power of the cult of personality. Dr. B serves as a metaphor for President Trump, and the dangerous cult that surrounds both, oblivious to the fact they are working against their own interests. This is a show that must be seen, although, alas, in Los Angeles it is so much preaching to the choir. Full writeup at https://cahighways.org/wordpress/?p=14459...
