What I liked
The set designed by Lex Gernon is remarkably rich. If there were an award for best production design, this show would be the clear winner. The addition of some of the most original artistic brushstrokes painted by the creators provide the best, most surreal characters.

My overall impression
From the moment even before the show began (I would advise arriving early for some delightful musical pre-show shenanigans), I had a smile on my face which didn’t leave until hours after I left the theatre. This absolute gem of a show is one of the most unique, captivating productions, and a masterclass in comedic writing, ensemble performance, and magical realism. The Attic Collective’s sophomore showing at the Hollywood Fringe Festival from top to bottom was near flawless, from their jaw-dropping meticulous, crafted set design to their group of beyond talented actors who are so in sync with each other.
The story of the Last Croissant follows nine unique individuals all who happen to converge upon the same campground. Although they each seek something different, they hope that there is respite and relief to be found in the solitude of nature.
