Review by MATT RITCHEY

June 21, 2023 gia on the move

What I liked

Pacing, stage use, costuming, close attention to detail.

What I didn't like

There’s a sequence involving blood that could be more finessed. There’s a practicality aspect to it that I understand, but it took me out of the world for a few minutes.

My overall impression

I’ve been waiting to see a performance of this since I read the script last year and my expectations were low – this is a HARD script and Fringe can be a mixed bag. I was pleasantly surprised to find a cast of truly great actors, direction with fantastic pacing, incredible clarity, and an overall production that stuck the landing. I knew what was coming and I was still creeped out. The best drama I’ve seen thus far at Fringe. Bravo and brava.
