Gatzby is.

cameron chyun · June 18, 2025 certified reviewer
This show is punk. This is not a traditional fringe play. It doesn't care if the music sounds good, if the visuals are too overwhelming, if you bother reading the program beforehand, or if it's even an enjoyable experience. In fact, it's more of a live music video AMV on the state of the world than a stage-play. These are features. Not bugs. The anger, the anxiety, the atmosphere, and most of all, the message is front and center. We are at WORLD'S END. ... full review

Late Sunday...

cameron chyun · July 08, 2024 uncertified reviewer
Late Sunday Afternoon, Early Sunday Evening is a very positive story about aging and culture that I feel is worth reminding. This is a story that allows a very accomplished senior, who is seemingly at the end of her adventurous streak, to admit that she can do and see more. There is always more happiness to be found, and while it does come at a certain cost, it's one that both characters deserve.... full review

Coffee, Tea, and Gin

cameron chyun · June 29, 2023 certified reviewer
Coffee, Tea, and Gin is a fascinating thought experiment on the dissonance of values between authors and audiences on two major literature giants. (that coincidentally shares the initials H.P.) Most fiction is an interpretation of an author's deep-seated ramblings made with the hopes that those who engage with it will connect to that discussion in some way. Casey's script revels in his own rambling, making it 100% clear what stances, issues, and conclusions he has as a conflicted consumer of Love... full review

The Sad Life Of A Happy Man

cameron chyun · June 26, 2023 uncertified reviewer
A dour, yet compelling hour of diverse interpretations of self-doubt and artistic pain. Christion Ty Edwards's performance justifies the potentially dragging script into a series of set pieces that kept showing a new side to his talents and the character's personal issues. My only wish is that I really wanted the show to work on the specifics of the characters from their artistic passions, inspirations, experiences, and subsequent disappointments that led to this horribly self-destructive min... full review

YONIVERSE (formerly: YONI KI KAHANIYA)

cameron chyun · June 20, 2023 certified reviewer
Yoni Ki Kahaniya isn't just a deeply contemporary and educational experience that perfectly delivers everything I want from a Fringe play, it is essential viewing to artists and academics. As a writer who ponders deeply on overlooked sources behind societal issues, notably gender and the censorship of female sexual experiences, I felt a range of heavy emotions on the subject matter and the gall of these performers to unite and share these commercially unviable stories. I imagine for most audi... full review

Karma in a Fishbowl

cameron chyun · June 20, 2023 certified reviewer
A charming glimpse into a very specific subsection of the entertainment industry; parental managers titled Mom-agers within the play. The demographic isn't a topic I've seen discussed very often and I can tell that the writer/director gathered this from many personal experiences. As stated in my likes, the character work is impressively done and the situation, while mostly abridged for comedy, does feel strikingly plausible. The best I could say is that I personally felt as if I had really met an... full review

A Definitive Ranking of My Closest Friends

cameron chyun · June 20, 2023 certified reviewer
A hilarious and uncomfortable depiction of voyeurism within a realistically, withering friend group that unfortunately could not stick the landing. At least, within the version of the play I got to see. For 90% of the play, I found the dialogue, character dynamics, and performances super engrossing. The very well-thought-out title delivers the concept perfectly with the friend group feeling both "lived-in" as well as dangerously toxic at the same time. The ambiguity of each character's true th... full review
