Playback was devasting, and still funny. The commodification of cruelty is particularly strange in the context of the "POD" cast. The whole notion of attention as power and the price of the power being what one is willing to excavate and expose and share or not. Who gets to tell the story and the why of the story is such a central question and a battlefield. Identity, labels, power and status. Lost in all of it is someone to care about. In the end the singular voice of decency is Bobby. Th... full review

Amazing Graves is a stellar production. Smart funny writing, and both casts were SO GOOD. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this show. Kudos to them!... full review

Interesting. Educational. A bit too abbreviated to make good drsma... full review

So Baby is a sharp, modern comedic drama that dives into the chaos of early college life, identity, and power struggles between young women forced into close quarters. The play captures the intensity of freshman-year emotions—ambition, insecurity, friendship, and rivalry—while balancing humor with uncomfortable honesty. Overall, it feels like a bold, character-driven piece that reflects the pressures of “peak college admissions insanity” and what comes after the acceptance letter.... full review

Coffee Date has high energy right out of the gate and maintains it. The madcap energy has delightful elements of a farce but also feels comfortable like a sitcom of the same genre a modern update of Three’s Company or Frasier.... full review

This show is such dumb fun I can't stop smiling thinking about it.... full review

Im a fan! Beautifully crafted storytelling. Her physicality and embodiment of her story kept me engaged the whole way through! ... full review

light and enjoyable. Some good humor but not as much as expected. Occasionally dialogue a bit difficult to hear. Best if you already had a good familiarity with the story.... full review

SHOGUN is a wonderful lesson in solo clown ! The way Alex engages the audience makes you feel you're connected with him right from the start as he explores himself through outrageous, expertly crafted scenes and games. ... full review

Absolutely incredible show. Mimi so completely shared with us all the impact of an abusive relationship. Her creative soul was able to clearly communicate the trauma that one can suffer. Michael Klubock... full review

This might very well be the most foppish musical to hit the Fringe! And for those like myself, who come in knowing nothing about the original source material, you'll do just fine. Taken from the "best" worst movie ever made, this show is chock full of characters, songs, dances and a never-ending supply of camp. Poor little Joshua (Tiffany Asta) just cannot get his family to believe him about the true occupants in Nilbog, where they've moved. It's only with Grandpa Seth's (Eric Gellar) help tha... full review

Wow. I may be biased because we are friends but I was blown away about this honest and raw story. I have known Spencer since 2018 so I already know most of his past and growth overtime. But the way he told it on stage, felt like a whole new perspective and I was completely moved by it. The show is an honest, courageous, and is deeply personal exploration of his coming out journey. What makes it so powerful is how specific and authentic his storytelling feels. I almost felt like I was actually the... full review

I loved the show!!! It is pieces like these that make me appreciate the Fringe Fest!... full review

What makes Suika Game and similar watermelon puzzles stand out is their balance between simplicity and depth. You can play casually for a few minutes to unwind, or you can dive deeper and challenge yourself to beat your previous high score. There’s no complicated story or steep learning curve—just a satisfying loop of dropping, merging, and improving. It’s also a great example of how a minimalist concept can still feel fresh and engaging. With just a few mechanics, the game creates endless varia... full review

SO FUNNY! I laughed so much. The jokes are so sharp and the performers are hilarious. So far I've seen the first pilot, "Chinese School". It's both laugh out loud funny and a heartwarming story. As a Chinese School alum from the 90s had a lot of fun watching Woody and the cast bring this story to life. ... full review

I am unclear why this show was allowed to use stolen art and to mock a past fringe performer for their career. It's in very poor taste and makes no sense. ... full review
