A clever premise, energetically performed, this exploration of what we hide from the public and what we secretly dream of is deeper than I expected it to be....

A fantastic late night spook show. Weird and fun. Unique and a great ride. Also it's super creative. There are aspects that feel like an exploded art project and it all feeds the feel of the piece. Dark (really dark in a few places) and ultra-silly are hard to combine but Bisschop does it without hiccups or seams. Masterful....

What did I just see? Was it a sly, satirical take on the hardships of a serial killer? Free will vs. fatalism? A salute to Dolly Parton? Yes!

A dark but sometimes funny entry into the world of theatre and horror. Pit of Goblins is a hard play to describe the mood of but that is what makes it worth seeing for yourself, wonderfully twisted, boldly confident in it's storytelling and deliciously macabre; it's a true piece of art....

A lovely dark little tale about a serial killer and, yes, a pit of goblins. Multiple characters, some satire, one actor and a whole lot of dead bodies. Exactly the sort of theatrical journey one expects from a Fringe show....
