A clever take on magic and a fantastic Fringe offering. Is she a spy or not? Katrina's charm draws people into the act becoming part of the story. Complete with jaw dropping illusions that will have you leaving the theater wondering, "how did she do that?" Spy or not, she's got the charisma to put the audience at ease for a nice, entertaining night out. I hope Katrina continues the evolution of this production. I will always say, "I saw it at the Hollywood Fringe first." :)...

Redemption Song was an incredibly moving theatrical experience that blended music and storytelling in a way that felt both intimate and deeply human. The writing explored themes of guilt, forgiveness, love, and loss with tremendous emotional honesty, creating characters who felt authentic, complicated, and immediately relatable.
What impressed me most was how seamlessly the production integrated its original music into the dramatic storytelling. Rather than simply accompanying the action, the ...

A fun interactive show in which audience members select from a "shop" of random objects for Daisy, a video game character, to use to save the world. Pick out outfits and weapons for Daisy. Embedded in the fun and games though, is a message about what we are teaching younger generations, and the world we are leaving for them....

As a corporate boy, this was a little too real, but in the best way. A lot of this show's point applies to my life, and Emma we're the same age so I really feel ya. I really enjoyed the story, and the larger universe/lore that Emma has crafted- it was believable and so engaging from start to finish. The underlying message is powerful and more applicable to millennial existentialism with each passing day.
I hear you, Emma. Will I ever be anything more than a Cool Aunt at my own space company?...

Raw, daring, dynamic, and completely gripping… TL Forsberg shines a light upon the world of deaf culture and the shadow of ableist culture while simultaneously holding up a mirror to it. Challenging audiences to sit with the discomfort of being invited directly into the lived experience of a world many tend to ignore, TL’s personal journey wrestling with her own identity and place within the in-between of hearing privilege and deaf culture pulls you in and does not let go, even after the lights h...
