The songs are all cute, but at times tastelessly cute. The performances are mixed, but your mileage may vary as the show is double cast. But you will be entertained, and in and out quick....

I knew a Matthew Robinson/Robby Devillez show would be a good bet. This is an inventive and very funny piece skewering the film industry, theater, and in general all us artsy types. It's a sardonic take on the "save the community center" trope set in the post-apocalypse. I laughed very loudly very often. ...

Overall, I found this a very moving and touching performance — and I’m sure it would have been even more meaningful were I, shall I say, in closer alignment :-). My wife found it extremely meaningful. I think we both highly recommend it. ...

Crystal's story and performance takes you on a powerful journey into her world of how she became addicted to crystal meth and ultimately what led her to leave it behind. It is beautifully and vulnerably told and simply her sharing her story, gives us all isight into a world that most people aren't familiar with. And, most importantly, we get to see that there is a human being that simply just got lost for a moment, and we get to know and SEE that human even during her time as a so called "addict"...

This is not just another Trump-bashing tirade. This is the type of modern day American mythology that lifts our collective pain and confusion about the current state of affairs and raises it to healing hilarity while also forcing us all to confront our own implications in the rise of a dictator....

This show pinpoints exactly the existential crisis that so many artists go through when trying to reason why they are doing the work they do. Funny and ridiculous and also weirdly touching, I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of The Human(oid) Experience.

Lara's show is a must see! She has managed to weave together a powerful story and an important subject matter into a high energy, no holds barred show.
She tells the story of falling in love, the awkwardness of that first time and ultimately realizing that maybe what she thought was love, wasn't; in the most unhealthy of ways, even dangerous. Lara's character work is amazing! Her accents and physicmlizations of different parts of herself are fantastic and very well crafted. In fact, the entire p...

Daly's vision of a superhero movie via the stage is well recognized, with ridiculous super villains, a lot of spandex, and a down to earth girlfriend saving the day. A unique look at the expectations on superheros, this show is a lot of fun, while managing to have real moments as well. ...
