CHRISTIAN WHITAKER certified reviewer June 22, 2022
This show is ENGAGING and playfully CONFRONTATIONAL. Every seat is front row and feels like a slow sink into a warm, familiar abyss of all things Lynchian. If you don’t know Lynch, you will! And if you can’t tell exactly what is going on, then you are part of the hunt. The acting is excellent. The vibe, purple and murky, yet crystal clear in its execution. This is rock n’ roll, jazz, goth, and grinding alloy gears all in one. Michael Shaw Fisher never disappoints. Don’t miss this.... full review

If you love the quirky world of David Lynch than, dare I say, this may be the play, er, musical, er, dance number, that might tick off all your boxes. That's if you like boxes. A wild free for all in all things Lynch-like in nature. It's sure to please the eyes and ears.... full review
KEVIN CALLIRGOS certified reviewer June 21, 2022
A wonderful threading of emotional scenes substantiated by the implied mechanics of a surreal reality. The entire show is emotional scenework and it speaks to the audience in a primal way. There is something very human going on here, and that is very refreshing.... full review
MARZ RICHARDS uncertified reviewer June 21, 2022
Good for the everyman, great for the Lynchian master. The deepest dive into the cinema of David Lynch through the poetry of his lens and the music of his movies, edited by Bizzaro Shaw Fisher, a cracked reflection of a Fringe veteran who has been shattered by sleep deprivation and immersion in all things Lynch. Begins strange, gets foggy, self-corrects like a top about to fall over, then twists another and ANOTHER and ANOTHER film into the taffy until you are certain that your particular favorite won't show up...and then you get to walk the Weirding Way. Perfect for the reconfigured theatrical space at 3 Clubs, very well staged with minimal setting. Fun to watch, to experience, and to be present in the world. Probably not for those who ha... full review

Easily the most stylized, polished, and bonkers entertaining show of the fest. If you're a Lynch fan, you absolutely cannot miss this pastiche of bizarro moments inspired by nearly (possibly) all of his cinematic (and television) works, complete with musical numbers and characterizations that will leave you fizzier than a shaken can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. I would suspect non-Lynch fans would also find themselves swept up in the heady, often hilarious, and downright mesmerizing pull of this wild ride.... full review
SPENCER CRIM certified reviewer June 19, 2022
As close to a cinematic experience that a theater can provide in the best way possible. Great acting, singing, music, light design, set design, costumes, etc. all worked together to make the most out of a funny, well-written script... full review
JEFF SCOT CAREY certified reviewer June 18, 2022
Extraordinary storytelling at its most alluring. I am already on the record that Michael Shaw Fisher is one of my favorite writers, full stop, and once again he dazzles Hollywood Fringe audiences as writer/director. The cast is wonderful as they expertly usher us along this whimsical tale, that has no top or bottom, or sides. I loved David Haverty, Leigh Wulff, and Fisher himself, who by now are all old stand-bys in Shaw Fisher works. I'd never seen Misha Reeves or Juan Lozano before but they fit right in with this band of impressive misfits in the best way. Congrats to all involved as nothing short of complete commitment to every moment would have worked. And the show really worked for me, it was such an engaging watch. The choreography and... full review

Wow! I'm still thinking about this show 2 days later and I've been binging David Lynch movies. This show is another Fisher masterpiece, you have to see this. Even if you don't know who David Lynn is, the show is still intriguing and pulls you in. The whole cast is fantastic. Everyone sings great. It's like every David Lynch movie wrapped into one. You should put this on top of you to-see-list.... full review
