Kids Are Hard to Impress, But I’m a Big Fan of Tea

A show dependant on audience participation, but with the scariest audience of them all… judgemental children. Even with a tough crowd, we were all hypnotized by his tea driven mission of he achieving The Perfect Pour™. This show was so fun, and there’s always enough happening that you were constantly engaged. Not to mention this venue features one of the smallest stages, but is somehow still cozy and inviting. Even though I was not the intended audience, I had a great time, laughed lots, and just enjoyed going back to the days when I was a little fringer. Alex really seems to love what he does, and is exceptionally skilled in all aspects of story telling. Everyone really loved his humour, puppets, and all his tricks. Also, shoutout to the tech team at the back, who I sat beside and shared smiles with the entire performance. Even they were having a good time. A puppeteer, a juggler, a storyteller, a comedian, and a tea master, Alex is a true renaissance fringer. What a joy to watch, and to feel like a kid again.
