Amazing Sex Life of Rabbits

ben moroski · June 18, 2025 certified reviewer
Michael Shaw Fisher, in his much-anticipated return to non-musical theatre, turns the ever-sturdy living room play roughly on its head, shakes the change from its pockets, steals its shirt, pants and shoes and sets off on a very funny, very angry, very bawdy romp around sexual politics all while savagely tarring and feathering the dire state of American society at large. "Amazing Sex Life of Rabbits" is a well-cast, whip-smart, laugh-a-minute, crowd-pleasing ride for this exact moment. A real joy... full review

Murder Blood Bear Story Part 2

ben moroski · June 21, 2024 certified reviewer
Sweet, funny, frightening and ultimately deeply moving, Katelyn Schiller's "Murder Blood Bear Story Part 2" is a work so poetic, tactile, surprising and singular, it accesses an emotional language so uncommonly rich and primal that the only proper response is to allow yourself to bathe in its otherworldly and achingly empathetic aura.... full review

Dear Auntie B.

An expertly crafted nesting doll of grief, trauma, resilience and denial, Becca Lustgarten's "Dear Auntie B." is a vivid, literate lightning rod, a deeply funny, deliciously murky window into the complexities of love, death and survival and a perfect example of solo theatre at its charismatic best.... full review

WHO’S AFRAID OF DAVID LYNCH?

ben moroski · June 14, 2022 certified reviewer
A sensory-overload, labyrinthine fantasia as could only emerge from the mind of Michael Shaw Fisher channeling David Lynch. This is the stuff the best of Fringe is made of. Whatever your knowledge of David Lynch's oeuvre, Who's Afraid of David Lynch? is a blast.... full review

Noor Inayat Khan: The Forgotten Spy

An incredible story anchored by an incredible performance. Almanya brings us into the world of the story with a level of immediacy that is thrilling. Her intense physicality anchors the show. At 30 minutes, I still wanted more! ... full review

A moving journey. Lisa commands the stage with her chameleon-like transformations. Extremely relatable, devastating and hilarious. Pulls no punches. A frank, playful and nakedly honest odyssey.... full review

Orangutan

ben moroski · June 09, 2019 certified reviewer
A primally urgent and wildly intelligent play for our moment. Troy Deutsch's "Orangutan" could have easily found itself trapped in the echo chamber of a one-joke premise. Instead, it resounds with the poisonously barbed comedy of Edward St. Aubyn's Patrick Melrose novels and the savage, philosophical gymnastics of Edward Albee. Horror, humor and rage -- a wild ride reminiscent of Ellen Burstyn's Sara Goldfarb in "Requiem for a Dream" -- brought to vivid life by Kristina Mueller's electric perform... full review
