The Living Room

An hour of fun and silliness punctuated by moments of stillness and heartbreak. Amrita and Gemma are excellent clowns that took great care to make sure that the entire audience was getting what they needed.... full review

MIL GRUS

jake kornely · June 17, 2019 certified reviewer
Five monsters in matching outfits (that are never quite as scary as they might originally appear) do everything they can to get the audience to love them. It was absurd and silly, and you could tell that the performers weren't sure of what was going to happen next. The show was spontaneous and weird and very, very funny.... full review

From Toilet to Tinseltown

jake kornely · June 22, 2018 certified reviewer
Really funny one-person-show! I'm only a casual HP fan, but I knew enough to get me through the show. The majority of the show is a satire on a creepy character who will do anything for Hollywood stardom. There's plenty of pop-culture references that get ripped up along the way. This is a MUST for fans of dark humor.... full review

Anxiety Written

Seeing this performance was an amazing experience! This was honest, humorous, and touching. I was floored! I was on the edge of my seat from lights up to lights down.... full review

Nobody's Really Helped Me

jake kornely · June 19, 2018 certified reviewer
A very funny mix of music and self-deprecating humor. If Lanessa only told jokes, or if she only sang songs, that would be a great show. The combination of these talents makes this show unique, engaging, and hilarious.... full review

Modern Romance

The Day I Became Black

I can't stop thinking about this show. Bill is a brilliant performer and storyteller and I feel lucky to have seen this. It was honest, topical, smart, and very funny.... full review

A Beast/A Burden

jake kornely · June 16, 2018 certified reviewer
A compelling behind the scenes glimpse of a performance artist. This made me want to go out and learn more about Chris Burden. I loved how they showed how the close relationships around the artist were affected as his art became more provocative.... full review

Terra Is A Warm Gun

jake kornely · June 15, 2018 certified reviewer
I saw a snippet of this show at Fringe Cabaret and knew I had to see the rest of it! I was blown away with how weird this show is in the best way possible. Terra is a captivating performer. At times I didn't know where the show was heading and I loved it all.... full review

An Odyssey

jake kornely · June 14, 2018 certified reviewer
A clever and inventive take on the Odyssey. The whole performance was sweet and touching with moments that will make you giggle. Each of the actors looked like they were straight out of a Wes Anderson film, but their performances were so much deeper than that. It was beautiful and engaging start to finish.... full review
