A tearjerker with the joke-per-minute ratio of a 30 Rock episode? They said it couldn’t be done but here’s Brendan Scannell doing it. Equal parts funny and heartbreaking, scathing and sweet, vulnerable and virtuosic. Not to be missed! Run don’t walk! ...

Bean (the joyful Midge Lema) takes the audience on a wild ride through space, time, and a very particular grief. Through weirdly fun little songs, robot dance moves, penetrating focus, and some unexpected audience engagement, Bean manages to hook us with her comedic storytelling just in time to drop us into her very authentic and poignant observations of the grieving process. Through her heartfelt monologues, I was encouraged and able to recognize some of my own manifestations of grief. Do Not Mi...

Overall very well done. Certainly the high point of my day at the Fringe. I really would have liked it better in period costume. Performances were very good, especially Alice and Arden, but men in the supporting male roles would have carried it a bit better in my view I realize this can be a problem , but I remain a purist....

As a Deaf person, my experience is different from hers, but I appreciated her honest portrayal of growing up hard of hearing between the hearing and Deaf worlds. Her performance was emotional, humorous, and genuine. What stayed with me most was her journey toward self-acceptance and confidence in who she is. I enjoyed seeing her confidence shine through as she embraced her own identity. A heartfelt and engaging show. Congratulations on a wonderful performance!...

"Two Lies and a Truth" was captivating. Jalen seamlessly inhabited a range of characters while remaining authentically himself. The writing was sharp and the intimate setting made the emotional beats even more powerful. The music added depth and the humor had us laughing out loud. We were truly drawn into all of his worlds. ...

Thoroughly enjoyed this!! Was a bit wary of the intense subject matter but found it to be handled with a lot of grace and intelligence. Jokes felt like they kept the propulsion up and added to the play instead of feeling tonally out of place. Reminder me of an intense episode of Girls where it hurt really bad but because of how real it felt....

She truly put her heart on her sleeve with this production and it really showed. The tech and effects were also incredible and visually stunning.
