Best Wife Ever

Complete and total stand up show in an intimate theatre space that takes you on a journey through Cat's life while making you laugh the whole way through. There wasn't a single joke that didn't land and it felt like she could have gone for double the time and no one would have noticed or cared because of how engaging the performance and material were. Stellar!... full review

This show is AMAZING! From the start, you are immersed in the camaraderie of camp with your fellow audience members and brought into a world that really feels like you are around a campfire with a couple of counselors at night. What they accomplished with the set and lighting design is incredible. Lots of audience participation (if you want to) and laughs throughout. The use of the space and props for sound and atmosphere is second to none. Since the show changes every time, I will be seeing this... full review

The Legend of D.C. Colorado

Just when I think I've seen the best show I've seen at Fringe, The Legend of D.C. Colorado swoops in and makes a bold and hilarious statement of it's own. What a hilarious ride full of perfectly cheesy comedy, great characters played by great actors, and the best use of projector as an aid to storytelling. At no point did the show drag. Characters were campy in the most comical way. Not being a typical musical fan myself, I can say this show is a musical for people who don't like musicals. I plan... full review

Criminal Genius

This has been the funniest show I have seen at Fringe so far! The script cooks, the cast has great timing, and the stage setup in a hotel room was done wonderfully. You will definitely get a Three Stooges vibe from these lovable losers that are probably in the wrong profession as criminals. Absolutely laughed out loud throughout and it never felt like it dragged or went too long. Highly recommended for all! Unless you hate laughter. In that case "I'll kick ya to death!"... full review

LUNA

This piece was very interesting, and surprisingly packed with auditory and visual media to engage all of the senses. It was both intimate and voyeuristic all at once, with themes I'm sure a lot of people can connect with. Though you may not take notice because it was accomplished so well, there are some pretty complex technical aspects to the show.... full review

Mother Grace

A very theatrical piece that is raw and visceral. The scene changes and use of stage/furniture were very well done. At times I was holding my breath watching scenes unfold. A lot of the actors knew just how much to give to the performance, keeping the audience interested in the buildup to the climax.... full review

Apocalypse at the Rainforest Cafe

What a truly wild experience. This is the effort of people that obviously eat, sleep, and breathe theatre every day. The stage, costumes, and production assault all the senses. You will be entertained, without a doubt.... full review

Powerhouse vocals, great character work, hilarious comedic parts, and tear-jerking to boot. Made me want to hit the wikipedia page after to find out more about the princess.... full review

Homeless Romantic

Fantastic standup piece. Not a dull moment throughout. Tony knocked it out of the park, and is a local legend indeed! Constant laughter, great crowd-work, sincere story-telling. A perfect way to spend an evening at Three Clubs.... full review

A Terrible Show for Terrible People by Bonnie He

john leingang · June 07, 2022 certified reviewer
It is NOT a terrible show, but if I liked it a lot, perhaps I AM a terrible person? Laughed out loud throughout the piece, was pulled on stage along with a few other audience members, and had a great time. You won't be disappointed with this theatre experience!... full review
