Review by JENNIFER CHUN

What I liked

This was a fresh re-telling of old Hollywood history – adding a human aspect to old legends. Jonathan Cho was a joy to watch.

What I didn't like

I had a fabulous time.

My overall impression

This wonderfully multilayered comedy made me laugh, and then it made me want to cry because the subject matter hit me close to home as I am the mother of two CeltoKorean daughters who struggle with the subtle undertones (and not so subtle undertones) of racism in their daily lives and careers. The tongue in cheek humor was brilliantly rendered – a real Fringe delight.
