Fringe Review: May Be a Play?!

Ryan Pepper: “Earnest nearly to a fault, Sidney Moon and Maggie Decady’s May Be a Play?! is one of the sweetest heroes journeys I’ve ever seen, and a painfully 21st-century one as well. The actors had a lot of fun onstage, and the audience did too.”

Fringe Review: RAVEMOMS

RAVEMOMS Created by Kel MacDonald and Hilary Peck Produced by The Precariat (Ottawa, Canada) 60M | Content Notes: Abrupt Loud Noise, Audience Participation, Mature Language, Sexual Content, Mental Health Topics, Flashing Lights Never have I ever left a Fringe show as sweaty as I did for RAVEMOMS. Upon entering the venue, patrons are greeted by […]

Fringe Review: Oh Boy!

Colin Noden: “By the middle of the show, I found myself trying to remember the words to “I Am My Own Grandpa.” At the end of the show, I was asking “And the point is…?” which I suspect would get me a big “Exactly!” answer back. All this in just over thirty minutes.”

Fringe Review: Nuit

Mac Dale: “The story seems to lack cohesion in its point of view. If you are like this reviewer, you come to the Fringe for just this type of show! The characters are all well defined and have their own voice, and it feels like the performers are bringing a big piece of themselves to their multiple roles.”

The […]

I close my eyes and the flashback starts… ~ Taylor […]

Fringe Review: The Remembering

The Remembering Created by Billie Nell Produced by Nell Creations (Ottawa, Canada) 60M | Content Notes: Masking Performance, Described Performance, Violence, Mental Health Topics By Eve Beauchamp If there is one word to describe The Remembering it’s deliberate. Every single line, movement, article of clothing, and set piece is adeptly calculated. In fact, Billie Nell, […]
