Princess Magic's Trash Fire Time Revue
The best dumpster fire of a birthday party I’ve ever seen! I laughed so hard! So much fun from start to finish and I didn’t want it to end! Misty Lee and her ensemble are all comic geniuses. The side looks, the bits, and the comedic timing were all on point. I was doubled over with laughter. I loved the birthday hats, the decorations, the magic, the PowerPoint, the songs… creative and hilarious!

Crack Whore, Bulimic, Girl-Next-Door
An honest and relatable feminine journey creativity told through three characters representing one woman. The scene where the women try on all the different clothes and then decide not to go to the event was so relatable it made me emotional. The script was honest and real. The characters weaving in and out created this beautiful tapestry of a complete and real woman.

Mandy Picks A Husband
A hilarious and touching journey through Mandy’s life experiences that kept me on the edge of my seat. Her story is raw, honest, personal, and told in such a clever and witty way. I LOVED all the singing and the song choices. Amanda can SING, and they were absolutely perfectly chosen and placed. The script is very, very witty and so well written. I thought there was a great arc to story and I enjoyed the ride.

FERTILE: At Solofest via LIVESTREAM!
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Heather stated that her goal was to start a “conversation on the expectation of procreation” and I felt like her show NAILED IT! Heather is a talented actor who was able to portray so many distinct characters with honesty and truth. I liked that the show did not offer any definitive answers or resolutions for Jenny and that is how Heather was able to achieve her goal of starting the conversation. It’s the kind of show that I’ll talk about for a while with my husband, my family, and my friends.

Treason
WOW! Treason has one of the strongest casts I’ve seen at Fringe this year. Every character is real, honest, and completely connected. The well written script helps them achieve this feat with honest family moments, tense dramatic moments, and a well thought out arc. An all around great show. The actors were spot on. The characters were so well written. The story and arc of the show were great. I pretty much enjoyed it all! Special kudos to the original music which really set the tone perfectly.

Raised By Wolves
Marla Black has a crazy story to tell, one that will make you think for quite a while after. I found myself looking at my own world in a different way. Marla is a witty writer and tells her story with humor, grace, and emotion. I learned something new, laughed out loud, gasped, and cried. Raised by Wolves is a real work of art. I loved the education on pack structure and her journey within it. I loved Marla’s portrayal of her dad in the beginning, her honesty, and her ability to connect with the audience.

My Name Is Mommy
Clementine is motherhood accurately portrayed on stage from the tempo, to the flashbacks, to the emotions. It’s so relatable and honest. It was like looking in a mirror; I saw my mother, my grandmother, and myself in April. She captured the raw universal truth, pain, and joy of motherhood. It was beautiful and I cried through most of it, even the happy parts!

Transference
Transference is excellent, brilliantly written, expertly acted, and all around solid show. I felt like I was back in NYC watching a professional Off-Broadway work of art. The script is so polished, witty, well crafted and researched, and with the perfect amount of suspense and reveal. The chemistry between Lisa and Ester is absolutely perfect, believable, and enthralling. I was captivated from the moment the show started.

BLACKBOXING
Blackboxing is a clever parody of one person shows that manages to deliver an important message without hitting you over the head. I liked everything about this show. Matt is talented and honest while poking fun at the solo genre. The direction was clear and crisp. Jim the Stage Manager expertly executes his role with a beautiful underlying hint of compassion that comes through at the exact right moment. The original songs are fun and playful.

Pam is a very talented dancer and charming storyteller. She tells her story with wit and passion. I enjoyed being swept up in her journey. Pam shines onstage! She’s an absolute natural and such a beautiful dancer! I loved the old videos and pictures. I loved Pam’s use of the stage, costume changes, and physicality.
