SARA PROCTOR certified reviewer June 30, 2019
It was soooo good. Very compelling. I have never seen a play like Fight Song, and I didn’t know what to expect but I’m blown away. It’s experimental in all the right ways while still delivering such a great story. ... full review

This show is such an interesting take on what happens when you die-heaven/hell/the in-between? It also raises the questions on what it’s like to live in a religious setting and how hypocritical that way of living can be.... full review

I saw this absolutely wonderful show during its debut and fell in love instantly within the first few minutes. The concept of this play is excellent and very beautifully executed. The characters are all discreetly developed throughout the piece- one of which was revealed to be the character I connected to most who had one of the smallest parts in the show until the close.

Incredible. Out of the countless shows I have seen at the Fringe over the years, I have never experienced something that affected me or captured my attention quite like this. Right from the beginning, Fight Song! drew me in. So intriguing. What will a person think when they realize that they may have just died? Furthermore, as someone who grew up in the sixties, I am so moved by specificity of the writing. It was very accurate, and I find it brilliant that the playwright chose this time period for this story. It provides a very thought provoking parallel between the wild and chaotic world of the sixties and what we're dealing with today in the US. Put it this way: when a play ends, and it feels like it had only just begun... the play i... full review
