I visited many countries . And I want to share my find with you. At first, it was always a problem for me to find cheap tickets and one of my friends advised me this <a href="https://voyagu.com/destinations/business-class-flights-to-africa-seychelles/">flights to seychelles from us</a> . After that, every trip I took was in business class for a normal price... full review

I went in with no expectations having booked this show at random. I was blown away. It was truly impressive. The concept, the script and the acting were outstanding. Two words spring to mind - innovative and heartwarming. You can tell a lot work went into prepping this act and it paid off. Congratulations! I tip my proverbial hat to Doug Harvey and Abigail Deser. I hope this work gets the recognition ot deserves. ... full review

One of the jewels of this year's Fringe with an expansive story and live score to satisfy Sci-Fi heads, a stellar performance by an engaging storyteller, and a beautiful reminder that the best of the Sci-Fi genre is not just the imaginative exploration based on scientific truths but a measure of our humanity and heart.... full review

Touching, exciting, emotional, exceptionally acted and written, this show takes you through the journey of time, love, and life itself. I cannot recommend this show enough. ... full review
ANONYMOUS certified reviewer June 27, 2019
Such an inventive piece of theater. Seamlessly melds the astronomical with the autobiographical to create a 50-minute roller coaster ride. Normally a one-man show can run its course quickly, but Harvey's ability to jump instantly between characters makes it fun to follow along. I can imagine this play being tweaked further so it's a bit easier to follow - the story is so dense that I had to really focus - and will be excited to see future iterations. It's a must-see while it's still running; no one else is making art like this right now. ... full review

Full writeup at https://cahighways.org/wordpress/?p=15413 The show, which was written, performed, produced, and composed by Doug Harvey (FB), turned out to be a bit more incomprehensible. A message is received from the future, and so someone is recruited to go forward in time to stop it. Our intrepid hero is the selectee, and what then follows is the mission, with lots of time travel back and forth, reminiscent of the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey, and about at times as incomprehensible. On the positive side, the music was great and relaxing.... full review

I loved it. It felt like if all the time travel and sci-fi stories I love AND all the best stories about being a child, being a parent, falling in love, finding your place in the Cosmos MET and had a baby. That baby is this show. I laughed, I cried, I traveled through time. ... full review
MITCHELL BISSCHOP certified reviewer June 07, 2019
Fantastic! A heady sci-fi solo show expertly acted and directed. Doug switches characters and emotions with ease and it is some of the best use of music on stage I have seen in awhile. This play reminds me of a the movie Primer in tone and how it grounds the sci-fi element. It is great!... full review

Harvey and Elitzer skillfully weave true science fiction adventure with a journey of personal discovery, never forgetting to make us laugh and think along the way. Harvey’s energetic and impassioned performance sucks you in like a black hole as he leaps from character to character, between time and space, while Elitzer’s direction grounds us is in the compelling and relatable narrative of a person searching for their place in the universe. I highly recommend it.... full review

A delightful and well-executed piece. Tightly packed into it's 50 minutes. Skilled performance, and engaging material. I needed to know what happened to the various threads that were touched on over the course of the play. ... full review
