This is easily one of my favorite shows I’ve seen this fringe. So much fun and so incredibly well done with a dash of audience participation to keep everyone on their toes and having a rowdy time.... full review

A fantastic brain-bender of a show that explores deep metaphysical themes when a seemingly unmotivated murder throws the lives of those connected to the victim into disarray.... full review

Upsetting, but I think it was supposed to be.... full review

Relevant. Complex. Striking. I did not know about the Anglophone crisis in Cameroon, which can be said for so many crises around the world, and yet more and more we are becoming made aware of these issues through various forms of social media, a point highlighted in the show. Ghost Town is a testament to power of one person's desire to engage in a story, digging into all its complexities, and sharing one's discoveries, in the hopes of igniting others' concern and curiosity about the worlds unkn... full review

DOGS The Musical is a fun, quirky one-hour musical that follows a story of a group of stray pit bulls, Street Barf(Dave Child) Leaky Eye(Bambi Bottoms) and their small but fierce leader Mutt(Alexa Vellanoweth) who are all are all content living free away from the bondage of human ownership. Our furry friend's world is turned upside down when the trio is captured by Animal Control, and they have to face their biggest fear, being adopted by a loving family. ... full review

Shanara's energy is breathtaking. Sometimes she talks so fast I couldn't keep up, but that seems to be true with most YOUNG people now-a-days. I always am happy when I learn things and... I did.... full review

This one's a doozy. Expertly directed by Billy Brewton -- there is absolutely no dead space. Outstanding acting by the entire cast. The writing crackles. Do not miss.... full review

A fun concept with poor execution. I really wanted to love this experience, but the performances were terrible and the entire production felt like a bad summer camp exercise. We had no idea what we were supposed to do or why, the entire narrative was a mess, and each "quest" my friends and I embarked on had an unclear purpose.... full review

Jamba Juice the Musical. Why WOULDN’T you?... full review

Fringe is such an incredible time for theatre creation. We're given so little time to develop our baby, and when it's time to put it up, we have 15 minutes to set up and 15 minutes to strike. As such, the diamonds are created from this intense pressure, and this is why The Last Croissant is one of the best shows of the Fringe. Everything from the set, costumes, direction, writing, sound, and of course the performances have been painstakingly thought out. And yet, throughout, the actors remain pla... full review

The vulnerability of Amanda's story is both relatable and endearing. We root for Mandy right out of the gate, as she takes us on her version of the ride to empowerment and self-acceptance that just about every human being experiences in their own way. We see ourselves in Mandy, and she gives us hope. ... full review

A fun blend of immersive theater, carnival, RPG, and history, Ascend puts you into the shoes of Unnamed Hero and let's you do what you will with your time among the gods. Playful and fun, the biggest strength comes from the lack of linear structure, giving the audience ample time to gather what story or experience they wish. ... full review

Two wealthy African-American entertainers at the height of their careers take a trip to Greenwood Mississippi in 1964. Harry Belafonte & Sidney Poitier, travel to complete a task there, which as you can imagine is the last place you’d want to be in 1964 as an African-American. The acting is top tier and the writing is clever. I highly recommend seeing the show, you’ll be in for a treat it’s a ton to unpack so a second, maybe even a third watch will be warranted! ... full review

Okay, I was hoping that the titular song would be out of my head by the time I wrote this review, but seeing as it's been over a week since I've seen the show and I'm still humming along, looks like I'll have to give up on that idea. (curse you clowns) It is so nice to see that Four Clowns have made their return to Fringe, this time with the very funny Joe DeSoto at the helm. This show did not disappoint. I had a BLAST from beginning to end. The thing that Four Clowns does so well is create su... full review

Provocative, stirring, and not here to play nice, Start Swimming looks into the audiences faces and asks them the most uncomfortable of questions: What are you doing here? Prepare to question your way of life, your decisions, the institutions that ground you and the very idea of "you" in this world of fake rules and made up boundaries. ... full review

This was the most powerful theatre experience I’ve ever been to. It was genius and broke every kind of wall you can imagine , audience + performer, alive + dead ... I left in such a heightened state of awareness , it was basically a mystical experience, a hilarious and tragic epiphany.... full review

Emotional and powerful, Silent Joy reveals itself to be much more than just a story of companionship, but a story of being your own guiding light. Circling deep into the rings of hell, the pain and torment behind the story is revealed, and the characters and audience are brought into a bright new world. ... full review

An amazing glimpse into the world's worst fears, Life Plan asks how much is life worth to you, and whether quantity or quality is better. Funny, emotional, and haunting, Life Plan delivers to make a complete world in the not too distant future seem all too scary real. ... full review

A well-acted and compelling Fringe show. ... full review

The comedy writing in this was so good, that several of the sketches are "SNL" or "In Living Color" worthy. Seriously, this is better than most of the stuff on network TV. If you like laughing, go see this show. ... full review
