2Cents Theatre Group's presentation of Miller & Tysen's song cycle about wanderers in search of deeper meaning in each of their lives is a cleverly-staged 90 minutes of pure entertainment. Absolutely worth checking out. ... full review

This is the second time I've seen Simon's show, and I'm still just as gobsmacked by his illusions as I was the first time. I can't say enough good things about his act, so just go see it. It'll leave you with a sense of wonder.... full review

They say, "You should never meet your heroes." After seeing this play, it's easy to see why. King Dick, a new play by the delightfully mad Christian Levatino, takes on the challenge of chronicling an encounter between two of modern American history's biggest personalities, and in doing so, it manages to expose them as sincere individuals, convicted in their beliefs, but just as deeply flawed as you or I. Christian doesn't hesitate to tear through the facades of legend and legacy, shattering the i... full review

I am absolutely heartbroken that the rest of the run of this show is sold out. I'd buy another ticket to it in a heartbeat. I *loved* this experience. Loved, loved, LOVED it. And do not get me wrong, it is an experience, not a show. Do not go if you do not like your art interacting with you. But absolutely go if you want to experience eight different stories in a unique, deep and profound way. ... full review

I have found Theatrical Nirvana, and it is in the back of a tricked-out utility van. Never in my life have I experienced such an intimate, moving and beautiful theatrical moment. I don't want to spoil anything. I can't even really describe it. It was just... intense, and quiet, and profound. It left me filled with magic. Look for the van. ... full review

I don't know what show Loulou In_LA saw (or what the hell their problem is), but what I saw tonight was a beautifully put-together, and unique production featuring three very strong and endearing performances. And this is coming from someone that has *no* connection to the cast or crew, other than a passing familiarity with their previous productions (#Hashtag, Making Love Over There, and Spring Awakening). (Okay, I know it's rude to bag on another patron, but I am stunned not only by the unne... full review

Wade Skalsky is a lawyer from Santa Clarita by way of North Dakota and Arizona. He's not actor, but through his one-man show, Fish Out of Whiskey, Wade reveals himself to be an engaging and very entertaining storyteller. Normally I steer clear of one-person shows, especially autobiographical ones (nothing personal - they're just not my cup of tea), but I'd met Wade at a fundraiser for another Fringe show a few months ago and found him to be a sincere, genuine person with an engaging and friendly ... full review

This is perhaps one of the Fringiest Fringe shows I've ever seen. It's only fifteen minutes long. No dialogue. If you took a bad trip on brown acid and your inner demons decided to manifest themselves as black-lit demon hippopotami, it would look something like this show. Not for everyone, but if you're feeling like taking a chance on something different, this is your pick. Even if you're a little more straight-laced in your theatrical tastes, this very well-executed and thoughtfully crafted expe... full review

May 39th presents an intriguing portent into the future of dating and human relationships. This is the story of a new love blossoming between two people, immediately bucking up against restrictions imposed on them by society (though exactly what those restrictions are, and more importantly, *why* they are is left frustratingly unclear). The acting and direction deliver though, as the chemistry between Tracy Eliott and Michael Hyland is electric throughout the story's many twists and turns as they... full review

I have a confession to make. I've never seen "The Sound of Music." You'd think that would be a prerequisite for a show that pulls a "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" on the story of everyone's favorite family of Austrian musicians obsessed with Favorite Things and climbing Ev'ry Mountain. But I'm pleased to say that my lack of firsthand experience with the source material did not preclude me from enjoying this delicious comedy of character and wit one bit. Sure, there are lots of references... full review
