An American Video Store

A truly entertaining piece that takes you back to the era of the video store, in this case Blockbuster. It was humorous, educational and very touching as the writer added a great personal storyline to parallel the fall of Blockbuster. I felt the range of emotions throughout the production, and there were genuine laughs from the whole audience. The writer/director/narrator did a fantastic job parsing out the story and also engaging the audience with each era of Blockbuster. You'll find yourself smiling for the whole hour but also find yourself touched. The ensemble cast really delivered great performances with engaging, unique characters. Can't recommend it enough. You'll leave the show with a big smile on your face.... full review

Great show! Funny, nostalgic, and poignant. ... full review

This show crept up on me, stole my heart and left me nostalgic for times I haven't thought about in years. The performances are solid with standout work from Aidan Rees and Kristin Morris who portray sisters with a vulnerability that steers clear of melodrama. ... full review

I loved this; best show I’ve seen at Fringe 2019!... full review

An affectionate tribute and insightful examination on how the trend of VHS / DVD rental stores shaped a generation, the play balances nostalgia & heartfelt character studies to explore the value of tradition & ritual. Even if it’s something as simple as renting a movie.... full review
