The Divorced Dads Guide to Slaying Vampires is a laugh-out-loud, action-packed ride, from the second the cast steps on stage, till the final bow. Set hilariously close to home in St. Albert, it blends absurd vampire chaos with everyday dad relatability in the best possible way.

The fight scenes are impressively choreographed, full of energy and perfect comedic timing. Every song, line, and lighting cue hits exactly where it should. This cast dives so deeply into their roles that even in the most absurd scenes it feels believable. This show on brotherhood, friendship, and fatherhood is a surprisingly heartwarming story considering the absolutely wild plot of this show. Filled with utter creativity and very clear dedication, I never wanted this show to end.

What really makes this show stand out is how it somehow manages to be both extremely clever and completely off the rails in all the best ways. No matter how ridiculous it gets it never feels messy. It’s smart, silly, and seriously funny. This is the kind of show you want to tell all your friends about as soon as it’s over. If you’re looking for something that’s high energy, well executed, and just genuienly fun, this is definitely a Fringe highlight.
