Red Bar

An odd and confusing look into one of the most interesting places on earth: the den of serial killers. What could have been an amazing premise was muddied by half-hearted audience immersion, strong stylistic choices that left characters stranded, and moments of AA-meets-Fight-Club chanting that keeps the audience from really connecting with the killers whom they are supposed to be a part of. ... full review

Red Bar is like joining a cult you never knew you thought you could be part of. Creepy as hell. That’s all I’m in liberty to say.... full review

Interesting premise. They’re open to audience participation, go for it! With the last show being BYOB, maybe there will be :-)... full review

Very dark and very thought-provoking. I was captivated and eager to see what was next with this support group for serial killers. This is definitely a play for deep soul-searching, not for mere entertainment. ... full review

A really interesting, dark, artistic show! Perfect for Fringe, but definitely on the dark side (fair warning). ... full review

A dark but insightful look into the minds and hearts of serial killers in an AA type meeting yet it takes place at a bar.

It's dark and edgy and there are secrets. Powerful performances from the very top of the show. I love the director's choice to have the actors almost-but-never-quite look at each other or even at the audience. I love the "can we join in?" feeling the audience gets to experience. There were times when the audience was directly involved, times when I thought I was part of the show, times when I absolutely knew I was not, and a few times when the cast was winking at us while barreling right on through the interaction. The premise it brilliant. Why are these people at a bar talking about "kills"? How do you get invited? What happens when the door shuts behind them? How did they track each other down? It feels like the first act of a muc... full review

Not what one expected when hearing about serial killers.... full review

I don't want to give too much away, but the show is a unique experience that is ultimately hard to describe. Some elements of humor and some of suspense really help guide the story. Not to mention the performance of Hallie which is a stand-out in every way and is it worth the price of admission just to see his scenes in the first half of the show.... full review
