Review by MICHAEL GORDON SHAPIRO

June 11, 2022 encore judge

What I liked

The script was witty and charming, the performances full of endearing personality. The characters all felt fleshed out and very distinct from one another.

What I didn't like

Like many young actors, the cast could project better, especially since they’re unmiced. The lyrics felt a little eccentric sometimes. (I’m not sure how many people understood the John Cage reference.)

My overall impression

Fringe is for all ages! A troupe of junior-high-age actors portray the story of an unmotivated class, and the substitute teacher who finds a way to reach them.
