This was an incredible, heartbreaking/hilarious and ultimately hopeful show about unimaginable tragedy and perseverance. Dione brings such levity and humor to the darkest moments, and it's truly mesmerizing to see. This show is the embodiment of "Some of the darkest moments are when I laughed the hardest". A must see. ...

Good Knight: A Masculinity Journey

This show felt like watching a boy playing out his fantasy of being a man via knighthood, and it was a joy to see. I love how Grant kept returning to themes of toxic masculinity, and ultimately transcended it through his performance by being free, playful, and creating community.He built his own crew (squire!), and then shared the power with all of us. A true knight!...

A full-on epic historical saga, presented by a worldly man of letters! I love how serious this show presents itself (As an "unreleased" podcast lol), and how unbelievably stupid it is. I was laughing all the way from Venice to Crete!
Jordan has crafted the perfect vehicle for his talents, and it's a real joy to watch him firing on all cylinders here. It's so fun to watch someone who clearly loves history and history podcasts/shows spoof those shows and the type of people who make them.

Meg is so funny, and this show is such a great showcase of what makes her so engaging. She is such a TRICKSTER and it's so fun to see her get in trouble with the audience again and again. She can get away with murder. And in this show, maybe she does... She also promises not to go blue. Unbelievable. ...

Fantastic show! Julia is a triple threat: singer, actor, TRUTH teller! She's like me—enough charm to fill the Roman coliseum (it's ok—she's Italian!), and she blends it with one part musical theatre, two parts confessional storytelling, and a big dollop of heart. And a teeny tiny dash of one more thing that I won't mention because I'm not Italian (nothing to do with this) and I don't do spoilers. ...

Fantastic, fast-paced storytelling with a lot of humor, physicality and heart. Frank has an unstoppable and lovable energy that is INFECTIOUS. This was a really moving story about masculinity, family and the ways that the hardships in life can really bring us together. It was beautiful. ...

What a delirious, demented ride through the mind of someone who wants a talk show more than anything but absolutely should never have one. But Jared is a big boy now and nothing will stop him from rising to the top. I love this show. Jared is out of his mind. He betrays everything that matters to him for one shot at success, and it's a real thrill to watch him fail at every turn. It's hilarious and absurd and so well-crafted. I love seeing a show where you can tell how hard someone worked to make...

get OUT! I was mesmerized by this hilarious, absurd show. I think it's so hard to have synchronicity on stage with so many performers, but this group really has what the French call "Complicité"! I love the dynamics, each person had their moment to shine, and the stage setup was hilarious. You never knew what was going to come out of that tent! ...

Mark you beautiful bastard, you blew me away with this show. With Out There, he's really created something special. Yes there's the beautiful technical wizardry that drops you into a different world, but what really works here is that Mark has created a character that allows him to play to all his strengths and deliver so much pure joy to the audience. It's really an engaging and loving performance, and the connection with the audience was palpable throughout. We were all on board and rooting for...
