A delightful and macabre show that is as funny as it is ultimately heartbreaking. I laughed, I cried, I enjoyed Mitchell Bisschop's brilliance as a writer and a performer. ... full review

Pit of Goblins was easily one of my favorite shows at HFF’19. It’s dark, hilarious, and has set the bar HIGH for what can be achieved with a solo show.... full review

A fantastic late night spook show. Weird and fun. Unique and a great ride. Also it's super creative. There are aspects that feel like an exploded art project and it all feeds the feel of the piece.

What did I just see? Was it a sly, satirical take on the hardships of a serial killer? Free will vs. fatalism? A salute to Dolly Parton? Yes! Twisted, dark, perverse, heartwarming, with matter of fact moments of lunacy, Mitchell Bisschop threads absurd premises and moment to moment reality together with a sense of play. The result is invigorating while simultaneously making you ask "WTF am I watching?" I can't wait to see his next show. My favorite Fringe show this year. ... full review

"Pit of Goblins" is a thrill ride from start to finish. Mitchell Bisschop brings humor and horror to the stage in new and surprising ways. I was mesmerized by so many elements of the show. This piece is a stand out of the Hollywood Fringe Festival and an exceptional theatrical production. ... full review
