Smiled the entire time. Loved the Austen references and TV show nostalgia. I would love to see this as a full production. Thanks for entertaining us!... full review

FULL DISCLOSURE, I know a lot of these people! I've got inherent biases! Read the reviews or just go see it. This show recreates the wonderful late-night energy of the Sacred Fool's Serial Killers show (from where this show originated). It's full of jokes, songs, references - the English majors will really dig this one. I saw it with a full house and the energy never wanes. An all around great time at the Fringe. ... full review

#ChanceItLA Jane Austen’s Emma Frankenstein is a fun show from start to finish. The script relies on kitsch and novelty, sprinkling just enough of it in to keep the audience entertained, and then relies on what people already know of Austen and Mary Shelley’s characters for everything else. FYI - even if you’re only familiar with one of Austen’s works, you’ll be fine. For the full review please visit the See It or Skip It website. Link below.... full review

We loved the fact that they don’t take themselves too seriously, but know how to deliver a show that is fun for the sake of fun without the necessity of having to say anything. The use of 80’s sitcom theme songs, and the amazing cast of mashed-up characters make this one of the most fun times we have had at Fringe. The special guest cameo by French Stewart didn’t hurt either. ... full review

This was a delightful show. Masterful comedic turns, smart, sharp dialogue, and funny as hell. Top of the Fringe.... full review
