Having seen Wuchte's previous Fringe show, Scarlett Fever, I knew what I was getting into and I was not disappointed. A physical narrative blending humor, movement, music, and a top-tier ensemble cast of seven, Housewife '52 should be on everyone's Fringe to-see list.... full review

Incredibly clever and creative! Blown away by the simple use of a crisp, white men's dress shirt and the diverse meanings it can take on! From the choreography to the casting, music and props it was truly amazing!! Experienced all emotions from this gem and loved every minute...a must see!... full review

A delightfully interesting and unique musical experience, with a talented cast and some lovely melodies and songs. Grabs your attention right up top and holds it through ‘til the end! If you were not fortunate enough to see John Wuchte’s last show at Fringe, then definitely make a point to catch this one! Another great show.... full review
