MY LIFE IS A SONNET

andrew thom · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
My first Hollywood Fringe show. Heck, my first one person show! Listening to Eric tell his story as Charlie felt like listening to a friend telling a gripping story of his past, warts and all. Eric wasn't acting. He became Charlie and I was truly on the edge of my seat waiting to hear how everything in his fictional life turned out. Thank you Hollywood Fringe for hosting such a wonderful event.... full review

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
This was one of those rare shows that trusts the audience to find their own meaning, and it's all the better for it. Beneath the surreal clowning is a surprisingly sharp reflection on what it means to be human... our need to connect, our fear of being misunderstood, and the ways we keep missing each other. Every unexpected turn somehow adds to that feeling instead of pulling away from it. I laughed a lot, but by the end I found myself unexpectedly emotional. It's weird, beautiful, and quietly pro... full review

S-27

elise robson · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
I'm such a fan of Sarah's writing! I love how its not packed with exposition and gives you just enough information to let the imagination fill in the rest. A lot of the moments really live in the subtext or what's not being said. Overall I think this is a very sharp, clever, and well crafted story that feels incredibly relevant and slightly uncomfortable at times. One of my favorite scenes is with the mother and May- so good! ... full review

DOOFUS

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
This show is completely unhinged in the best possible way. The character feels genuinely original, and the whole thing plays like a surreal fever dream. The improvisation is great, and the clowning is delightfully chaotic. Beneath all the absurdity is a hilarious depiction of just how disconnected landlords can be. I was laughing the entire time.... full review

Bebé Bebé

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
This was easily one of my favorite shows at Fringe. Veronica dives headfirst into the realities of postpartum with incredible honesty and absolutely no filter, and I admired the hell out of it. It's vulnerable, fearless, and outrageously funny, shining a light on an experience that doesn't get nearly enough attention. I laughed a lot, but I also left with a much deeper appreciation for what so many mothers go through. It made me miss my Mom a lot.... full review

The Master's Piece

lynae cook · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
the writing & acting were hysterical & incredibly well thought out, as was the production (lighting, sound, etc.) There was great twists & turns & I had a great time, it was laugh out loud funny with a mix of subtle & not-so-subtle jokes & humor. ... full review

Syrian Soap

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
Hands down my favorite show at Fringe. Edib is completely locked into the audience from start to finish. You can feel them responding in real time. The concept of an intergalactic bathhouse is wildly inventive, and the impression of the ancestor absolutely steals the show. It's funny, heartfelt, and so thoughtfully put together. Every element feels intentional, and it all comes together beautifully.... full review

The show was witty, contemporary, and creative. It held my attention the entire time. The acting and costumes were fabulous, I didn’t even recognize the actor I came to see at first. The actors all had beautiful voices too. The venue was intimate and welcoming. I left smiling and wanting to go to another show soon! ... full review

F*cking Famous

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
Molly has a comedy voice that feels completely her own. She takes a familiar "pop star" persona and pushes it into delightfully weird territory. The audience is a huge part of the show, and somehow she gets everyone to lean in without it ever feeling forced. By the end, you're fully invested and rooting for her all at once. Every single song in this show is genuine banger.... full review

Country Girl Makes Do

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
Sam has a way of making complete chaos feel totally intentional, and she's impossible to take your eyes off of. The show is playful, absurd, and full of personality, and she brings the audience into this exaggerated, cartoon-like version of her world with so much confidence that you can't help but go along for the ride.... full review

HYSTERICAL

kelly catey · June 28, 2026 certified reviewer
I loved how Jackie made it feel like we were stepping into an old burlesque club, only to surprise us with a totally original character. She's so expressive that even the tiniest look gets a laugh or tells you something new. She has a really charming, old-school stage presence that makes her impossible not to watch.... full review
