Such a lovely piece. The songs were very original, ranging from comedic to dramatic in a seamless fashion. Laura Jo Trexler embues such a passion in each song, and isn’t afraid to get performative with each one. One of the more original Fringe pieces I’ve seen, I can’t recommend it highly enough....

Laura Jo is so beautifully talented! She's taken these characters that we all know well and breathed a new life into them, rounding them out, and giving them each a voice and point of view that we don't normally hear. Her songs are catchy, her new lyrics are so fun, and I loved hearing Shakespeare's words put to music. Laura Jo sings, plays, and acts each character so well and really transforms herself in each song....

This show bills itself as a romp, and that is spot on. The songs are funny, sexy, sad, and in the case of Lady M, terrifying. Play On is a testament to the power of one woman and a piano....
