I almost laughed my head off during the show! The mix of the script that got me instantly pulled into the Old West setting, and acting that blurred the lines between grotesque comedy, deeply sincere romance, and a fight against injustice. Despite short duration there were so many details and captivating moments that I simply must watch it again!...

What a captivating and heartfelt evening of storytelling! Four of our theatre dressers had the privilege of being with Kim every step of the journey, making the experience even more special. Her stories were filled with humor, insight, and moments that tugged at the heartstrings. We laughed, learned, reflected, and were reminded of the power of sharing our personal journeys. Cheers to Kim for her courage, authenticity, and willingness to spread her wings while inspiring others to do the same!

Kel Cripe's non-binary, clean-cut humor is relatable, heartfelt, and absolutely touching. Through a "magic computer" filled with awkward childhood photos and memories, they take the audience on a journey of self-discovery that had everyone laughing one minute and dabbing at tears the next.
Kel's personality is incredibly endearing. They share their story with honesty and vulnerability, while laughing at themselves in such a loving way that you can't help but laugh right along with them. The sh...

Very funny, and the songs are impressive, the show is full of surprises, an actual mystery and of course, murder! Like marrying the best parts of musicals, the intelligence of a (fictional) investigative podcast, and a little bit of dinner mystery theater. This small show is mighty, and so is its cast/writers! ...

I did enjoy Playback. I think it’s a really great representation of the zeitgeist without playing tropes for laughs. There is comedy and that comes from real lives in character moments and well crafted and delivered jokes. The story itself is layered and grows more intense as the play chugs along. While the piece does feel so current I am certain it can be something that lasts as a portrait of this moment in culture. ...
