Breaking Bard

dina kampmeyer · June 26, 2015 certified reviewer
As a long time fan of all things Shakespeare and a somewhat recent convert to the cult of Breaking Bad, this was a must see Fringe show for me. Thank you goodness I bought my tickets early, cause this instant classic has a much-deserved sold out run. The show is a perfect blend of humor, high-brow monologues, low-brow characters and machine guns. Major props to the brilliant writer who perfectly blended Elizabethan text with a very modern story, all done with wit and humor. The cast (many... full review

Gentle Passage

I wasn't quite prepared for Gentle Passage. I hadn't heard much about the show and I certainly wasn't expecting the emotional impact it would have on me. It was such a beautiful mixture of joy and tears. Gary Rubenstein is a tour-de-force and his journey through alzheimer's was wonderous, joyous and devastating.

I highly recommend that you take the time to see this play if you've got the time a... full review

Richard Parker resulted in a long discussion with my partner-in-crime and this show just mi... full review

I've had the pleasure of seeing Jon perform at the Magic Castle and it was so nice to see him at the Fringe Festival this year. His magical skills are unparalleled and I was blown away by his tricks. He is also extremely funny and you'll be entertained every moment of the show. Just wait for his amazing Tiny Plunger routine, we're thinking of having t-shirts made. ;-)... full review

Four Clowns presents That Beautiful Laugh

This was my first Fringe show this year and what a way to kick things off! I didn't know what to expect from the show, but I was very pleasantly surprised. There was such beauty in the simplicity of the visual effects, the costumes and the humor. I'd love to see more from Four Clowns and I hope you can stop by and see this charming, touching and hilarious show.... full review
