As amazing as I remember, the group hit it out of the park again! Every member is obviously well verse in the works of Shakespeare and masters of weaving in the feel and character that populates his plays. While obviously always a little silly in nature, the drama and twists that unfold are still incredibly enrapturing and kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering just how they would resolve their story. I appreciate how they gather their prompt, and that they admit upfront that they are not trying to perfectly recreate the audience members prompt, but using it to inspire their story.
As always, I think it definitely worth seeing if you can, and more than once if you're able!
Hannah has an amazing show on her hands, and one that had my attention from start to finish. With little else that a costume and a bench, she transported us into 1920s Italy through the eyes of romantic adventurer Ramona Dale. A very classic adventure that wouldn't be too out of place in a black and white film, Hannah was able to make me vividly imagine every character and every detail of this world. It took me until the end to realize that there wasn't even any music!
This was a tremendous success, and a look forward to seeing what other adventures Remona find's herself in in the future!
A great Fringe debut, I had an amazing time watching the show! A wonderful exploration of the ups and downs of life, full of funny moments and incredible prop use. A few moments of fun audience participation, including being seat mates on a flight. Nico should be proud of her work!
The best way to describe this I fear is watching an impulsive toddler having a temper tantrum, except the toddler is a grown woman and also the devil.
Extremely funny, surprisingly bold in how far she was willing to go, it really is an amazing time, and one that is hard to describe without giving too much away. Highly recommend you go and see it!
This show, while having an interesting promise, needs more development before I feel it can be truly great. While the idea of an improvised murder mystery is fun, the format left a lot to be desired. It was too unstructured, and felt that the performers hadn't experimented to see what sort of plot lines they could successfully pull off. The audience was asked to provide far to many prompts, making each scene a mess of trying to fit as much connection in as possible. Often times the performers would deny the others offer, or push it into areas that were seemingly uncomfortable for the other. There was a timer mechanic that was not properly used, but I'm unsure how it would have mattered even if it had worked properly. At the end the audience is asked to vote between two suspects who both didn't really have any motivations for the murder, and thus the audience chose the funnier of the two. There wasn't an arrest scene, and the show just ended after.
I feel like instead of having two performers being both the investigators and the actors in the scenes, it would be better served by a third improviser playing both the role of a sole investigator and being a moderator for the other two improvisers, helping drive and sculpt the scenes. It would have made for a more cohesive performance.
I saw it opening afternoon, when the line up were the 'youth,' and had incredible time! It was charming and hilarious to see these children doing stand up, each in their own unique ways. Quiet a few of them even went to some pretty dark places that was both unexpected and extremely funny. If you have a chance, the format for the show is great and sure to leave you in tears.
An incredibly charming story of a cowboy hat salesman’s life. A show full of laughs and smiles, a pleasantly soft show that while not having a bunch of high energy moments kept me chuckling throughout!
Genuinely a nearly impossible experience to describe, but one that I’m sure I won’t forget. A series of vignettes that were often times gut bustingly funny, full of incredible eccentric and creative characters, with a small number of scenes that were genuinely moving and emotional. You won’t see anything else like it, and highly recommend seeing it if you can. A beautiful display of creativity and skill by everyone involved!
Extremely entertaining and relatable, the build up to the end was full of twists and turns you won’t expect! I love going in and not knowing I’m also going to get a funny and informative power point presentation, and coming away wanting to see the next person sharing their ick!
Saw their opening show. An amazing performance and a religious awakening! I am born anew a true believer in brunch! Genuinely would’ve bought a cast recording if they had one.
