Listen up. Mitchell puts on the consistently best and unique one-person shows at Fringe: always quality, always engaging, always entertaining. But he does more in TOUGHEST. In embodying and telling the fascinating story of Mike Royko, he not only gives a great history lesson, but he is grounded and connected in a new way. Instead of a Mark Twain style characterization, Mitchell IS Royko. Because Royko was us. The best of us. And so is Mitchell. See this. It’ll be one of the best things at Fringe. ...

Bisschop lights up the stage in this incredible solo show that proves to audiences that he is one of the best actors in Hollywood. Taking on the roles of Mike Royko and Studs Terkel, Mitchell digs deep and gives so much to his performance that you feel you are actually listening to these two journalism giants chronicle some of the most powerful moments in history. It's amazing. The pacing is on point as he takes his audience on a journey they are not expecting, but so glad they attended. If you can see this show, DO IT!...

The one-man show version of a documentary... a well-done documentary. It had heart, research, and passion for days. I laughed, I cried, I got angry....
