My overall impression

This was one of the best things I saw at Fringe this year. Joe Mahon weaves together three distinctly different characters that each give a satirical slap to the casting process of the entertainment industry’s face. He pulls all the right punches showing both the positive and negative attributes of (certain) casting directors and also showing the lengths an actor is willing or unwilling to go in the pursuit of their “dream”. Each character is a brilliant exaggeration, exploiting the varying personalities so many actors and/or casting directors have, in a hilariously cartoonish way. He hits the stage with a vengeance from the first moment and does not let up until his bow at the end. This is a must-see!
