SAW: Surviving Scott Sharma

brenda wong · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
This show was unexpected in the best of ways. Perhaps I didn't know what to expect, but I was not expecting this one-person show to be so introspective and humorous at the same time, drawing on Scott's life experiences. I wasn't expecting to see multiple versions of the solo performer on a screen. I wasn't expecting the singing either, but Scott has an amazing voice, both as a singer and a storyteller.... full review

CLUB CLOWN

brenda wong · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
Club Clown is so much fun. You, the audience, get to approve the clowns seeking entry into the club by waving the glow wands you get at the door. Music, dancing, and performers in their clown persona, and you even get to get on that Club Clown dance floor at the end of the show.... full review

Women Who Eat

jonah weiland · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
Fringe is so many things - one person shows, clown shows, experimental theater, traditional theater - whatever kind of show you're doing, it has to be either funny, deeply experimental, take wild swings, really go for your heart or be really surprising. If it doesn't do at least one of those things, what's the point? Women Who Eat is surprising, funny and takes some wild swings and it makes the festival better because of that! This is a great play that while you might figure out where it's lea... full review

Grit, Glitter & Gaslight

sketti boop · June 19, 2026 uncertified reviewer
Well the show started late, the the performer was clearly unprepared, she called for her lines multiple times and don’t think that was part of the show???, vocals were flat, she was making off-the-cuff comments to the audience and then flustering herself trying to recover. She kept saying it was jet lag (((yes, during the show!!!!))) but there’s only so much you can blame on that. At a certain point, I had to get up and leave because I couldn’t justify staying to the end. I’m a little older so ma... full review

The Men Who Drew The Universe

jonah weiland · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
This is a great little play and feels like it was personally built for me. As someone who worked in the comics industry for 22 years and has been a life-long fan, this is a story I am familiar with. What Joshua does well is distill it down to its essence and share with you both the legends and the truth about what really happened. It's well directed, traversing a long period of time with brief moments of fourth-wall breaking that feels natural. Fringe should be either be a place to experi... full review

The Solo Show SHOW

john klenk · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
It is a daunting premise, and one that would never work with a less skilled performer. However, Andel truly rolls with the punches to create an improvised solo show that, while it different each performance, is not only entertaining, but suffused with a deep love of the form.... full review

Ritual Music to Cure a Lover

carol m. becker · June 19, 2026 certified reviewer
In Shahin Sayadi's "Ritual Music to Cure a Lover," storytelling, original music and captivating character work collide in one of this year's most beautiful solo pieces. Throughout the 60-minutes, Sayadi portrays several characters, showcasing his powerful acting chops. Specifically, he embarks on sharing the Persian mythology of Farhad, his beloved Shirin, and their son. While taking some liberties in creating this work, Sayadi stays true to the source material: an ancient love poem. ... full review

On the Line

A tense hour of theater, I was kept riveted by two powerhouse central performances and a scenario that felt like an anaconda slowly constricting around my throat. I was entertained, very uncomfortable, and the ending left me feeling gross... I love it!... full review
