My overall impression
Writer Jan O’Connor has scored a trifecta at the Fringe Festival: Saturday afternoon was the hilarious “Gayby’s Playdate” in Fierce Relations (homophobia being dealt with even at the playpen level!)… and Sunday evening she had two more terrific entries in Fierce L.A. Streets, “Dusted” and “Pool of Gold in the Sky.” The former concerns Tinkerbell, now a little bitter and down on her luck, and the latter, a lost airline pilot dealing with a couple of street people who may or may not be Jesus and Mary. All feature funny, smart dialogue, unexpected turns and excellent acting. L.A. Streets concludes with Amy Tofte’s “Trio,” a rhythm piece that viscerally takes us to the city mean streets and gets us to feel her characters’ desperation.
