Perfectly succinct, Funeral Potatoes gives you just enough to both emotionally invest in the characters of the play and to realize that the experiences depicted can and likely will occur in your life in one form or another; navigates discourses of death that, while providing no 'answers', encourage you to begin asking questions we too often avoid....

What a fun, campy delight! Amir Levi turns Edie Stevenson, someone who could easily be a one-note joke, into a fully fleshed out character, and you root for her the entire show! If you're a musical theatre junkie, you will double over in laughter again and again. The highlight of the show comes at the end - no spoils, but you might wanna bone up on your musical theatre history before attending! Fantastic cast and a wonderful time!...

From the nostalgia of familiar music from recognizable movie sources (not yet in the public domain) setting the stage for what was to come, to the hilarious presentation of auditioning public domain characters, “Public Domain: The Musical” kept me entertained and fully engaged for the whole experience! In the tradition of Fractured Fairytales, the show blends a clever interplay between traditional Hollywood archetypes and new takes on public domain characters (some unexpected), designed to maximi...

I am not a theater buff. I didn’t catch many of the references to the theater scene.
And it didn’t matter. It was fun, funny, and appropriately touching at the end. Very well written. gratifying to watch performers and audience having a great time together. Really felt, in some ways, to a rocky horror picture show screening in nyc, circa ‘78. Lots of energy. I recommend, especially if you’ve been dragged around to several one man shows in the past. This is an homage and a middle finger to al...

I very much enjoyed What? A Story Show. In most traditional story-telling shows, each performer is given their allotted time to share their tale. This show takes story-telling to another level. Each story is broken down into segments and the performer will begin to narrate their personal tale. Then the story is brought to life and acted out with the other performers in the ensemble. Director Goodhart takes an original concept and soars with it. Each story is deeply personal and we get to actually...

GO SEE BIRTHDAY! I have seen many one person shows and this ranks as one of my all time favorites. Michael takes the audience on an emotional rollercoaster. You're laughing your ass off one minute and crying the next - and you love every minute of it. Michael is vulnerable on stage, and I can only imagine how cathartic it is for him, because it was cathartic for the audience. We are right there with him as he shares with us a year filled with unimaginable loss, but skillfully manages to never lea...

A truly entertaining piece that takes you back to the era of the video store, in this case Blockbuster. It was humorous, educational and very touching as the writer added a great personal storyline to parallel the fall of Blockbuster. I felt the range of emotions throughout the production, and there were genuine laughs from the whole audience. The writer/director/narrator did a fantastic job parsing out the story and also engaging the audience with each era of Blockbuster. You'll find yoursel...

Courageous and phenomenal. A truly inspirational story that required the artist to be truly vulnerable to share such a personal and touching story of growing up in a Christian cult. Although a unique experience, the artist made things relatable so anyone could understand and feel what she went through in a sincere and honest way. A one-woman show, the production never stalled and the direction kept the storytelling fresh and dynamic.
I was captivated throughout and found this to be one of ...

I loved Bushwick. The dialogue was very real and the actors did a superb job. This is a must see. Bushwick captures a “moment on time “. Three very different young people dealing with life and in this case finding a roommate. Summer Bills is outstanding g as is the entire cast. Schuyler Mastain, writer and director, has a gift. In this case a well focused view on something we can all identify with. ...
