This is an amazing show. One of my favorites in a very full lineup of Fringe greats! Seamless, fluid, dynamic and clear-eyed; this one will grab you when you least expect it. Stefan is a masterful writer/creator with an insane amount of ability and self-deprecating charm. His understanding of craft and structure is what sets this production apart from many others.... full review

This is a great show that doesn’t hold back on the sharing-is-caring concept. Strong vibes and a powerful performing presence from Cara make this one of the shows you will be glad you caught.... full review

Johnny has found a great story and framework to share through performance his journey as a creative artist. Often non-linear and constantly developing, the artistic and personal highs can be just the other side of the lows. The ever-present question of Why an artist keeps going in the face of rejection is at the heart of this play’s explorations.... full review

This show is one of my favorites this year! So glad I was able to catch it and I encourage you to see one of Andrew’s last two shows. Laugh out loud funny …he is such a talented artist. His on-point character work, the jokes landing non-stop, the staging, lighting, sound and videos are a solo show thrill-ride. And then he sings!! Several times!!... full review

I really enjoyed this show! I wanted to encourage anyone interested in a fast paced and humorous exploration of the “was he or was he not” topic to catch this one. The cast is great. The production is solid. The audience is presented the known facts and history with letters as evidence so they can come to their own conclusions. Fun!... full review

This show is a delight! Cylie is sensational in a multitude of ways and the staging is a unique and fresh way to pull off the challenge of a multi-character storyline. You will love just how amazing and heart-felt her performance is, and how well the team supported the quick change concept that allowed her to perform fully costumed as each character.... full review

I’m so glad I had the opportunity to see how amazing Ryan is as an artist and performer! The story of his journey away from the pain and abuse of an alcoholic and narcissistic parent and towards a life on his own terms is so well written and presented this show is a wild ride from start to finish.... full review

One of the strongest shows I’ve had the pleasure of seeing this Fringe Festival! An amazingly thoughtful and well written exploration of the complex relationships that can exist between our memories and perceptions, past and present, colored with grief. Top notch performances with great direction and production values make this a must see!... full review

This show really transported me to another time and place! Shahin has found an awesome way to present the myths, fables and true stories of his home and some of its history as metaphor and drama. There is an ancient spirit of storytelling at the core of this production, with ritual and belief driving the narrative and action forward. ... full review

I loved the journey! Christine is never short of luminous, and her songs are great. The show has a very high set of highs while the lows are heartfelt and I found myself right there with her.... full review
