A high-energy comedy show with a splash of storytelling and plenty of jokes drawn from Andrew’s own life. The experience actually starts before you even get into the theatre, with Andrew interacting and joking with people in line. Once inside, there’s another 15–20 minutes of stand-up before the main show begins, so you definitely get your money’s worth of comedy. Andrew has a ton of energy and seems almost incapable of sitting still, which keeps the show moving and engaging. The humour covers a variety of topics and personal stories without one major overarching theme, making it feel like a fairly typical stand-up comedy show with some storytelling woven throughout. One thing I would have loved to see was a stronger commitment to the costume setup. If you’re going to walk out in costume, lean into it! Give us the serious “come to Jesus” moment we’re expecting before taking us in a completely different direction. Overall, a lively and entertaining comedy show with lots of jokes, personality, and energy.
A really fun improv dinner party show featuring special guests Kevin Gilles and Colin Mochrie. It was refreshing to see a smaller improv group with such strong communication and chemistry. The performers worked really well off each other, had great physicality, and did an excellent job taking audience suggestions and running with them. One of the highlights was that the show actually had an ending! 😂 It’s always satisfying when an improv story manages to come full circle rather than simply stopping. The group’s ability to build on each other’s ideas made the scenes feel natural and engaging. A fun, energetic show with great collaboration and plenty of laughs!
A fun and imaginative burlesque take on the romantic past of a romance novelist, with gorgeous costumes, entertaining dancing, and a storyline that kept things playful and engaging. There were plenty of funny moments and great breaks throughout the show, making it an enjoyable overall experience. That said, the performance didn’t quite have the usual captivating quality I’ve come to expect from LeTabby Lexington. At times, it felt like you could see her thinking through the next move, which took away from some of the carefree, confident feeling that makes burlesque so captivating. Instead of getting completely lost in the performance, I occasionally found myself wondering how well some of the choreography had been rehearsed. Overall, it was an entertaining and visually beautiful show with some great moments, but it didn’t quite reach the polished, effortless level I was hoping for.
A hilarious and entertaining musical storytelling experience that had me constantly thinking, “WHY?!” or “NO, DON’T DO THAT!” 😂 The story was funny, engaging, and ultimately had a really meaningful message behind it. The combination of storytelling, great singing, and guitar made for a wonderfully memorable performance. Funny, heartfelt, and full of moments that will have you laughing, cringing, and cheering all at once!
What an incredibly fun and energetic D&D fantasy rock adventure! The cast brought great energy to the stage, and the combination of fantasy, storytelling, and live rock music made for a unique experience. The music was really good, although some of the songs were difficult to hear clearly at times due to the audio. Deadbeat absolutely stole the show and was awesome! Overall, a fun and entertaining adventure for anyone who enjoys D&D, rock music, and a little bit of theatrical chaos.
A hilarious and delightfully twisted take on the classic Hallmark Christmas movie! This show turns the typical feel-good holiday romance into a full-on horror-esque adventure, with plenty of laughs along the way. The cast had great energy, impressive physicality, and strong singing throughout. A fun, quirky, and unexpected Christmas experience that puts a wonderfully dark spin on a familiar holiday formula!
Fyi for schedule planning: It does run closer to 75 mins than 60 mins!
The cast made great use of a local landmark as the setting for the show, which gave the performance a fun and familiar feel. They also incorporated many of the audience’s suggestions throughout the show, adding an extra layer of humour and spontaneity. With improv, you never quite know what you’re going to get, and it was clear that the cast members were all seasoned performers who were comfortable thinking on their feet.
Beautiful! Heartfelt! WOW! ❤️ This show was expertly done from beginning to end. Shawn beautifully guided the audience through meaningful, heartfelt, and hilarious stories about his father, masterfully weaving together storytelling and incredible vocals. This show had us laughing, crying, and feeling truly honoured to have been part of the audience. It was such a beautiful tribute and an unforgettable experience. An absolute must-see! 👏❤️
The storytelling was humorous and entertaining with a good use of the space. Having live music was a fun touch however at times the singing could have been better refined. If you are looking for a show that feels very "fringe" this is a solid pick.
Controversial, off-color jokes that take you on the funny, sometimes uncomfortable, and downright scary twists and turns that travel can bring. Fedor expertly told stories that many travelers can relate to often bringing the audience into fits of laughter while also making heartfelt connections. If you love travel, dark and off-color jokes this is a must for you to see!
