What I liked

Riley Smith’s physical comedy and impersonations were on point.

What I didn't like

Some parts were faster moving than others. I felt that descriptions of the movie scenes, to prevent them from being too drawn out (much like the movie itself) worked best when punctuated with the right comic timing by impressions of the movie actors, facial expressions, or other physical comedy.

My overall impression

Imagine if you took all the stunning scenery, costumes, and large cast and budget out of the Fellowship of the Ring, and reduced it to one very energetic actor dressed as a hobbit running back and forth across the stage, impersonating multiple characters’ voices and expressions, and describing the action.

That’s what you get with this show. And it’s delightfully ridiculous.
