An hour that went by in a moment. Wonderfully conceived, thoroughly compelling and illuminating. Thank you for the research and work that went into giving us moments of reality from a time long past yet totally relevant to the moments that we live in.... full review

Even If It's Wrong

marc peter reyna · June 22, 2017 certified reviewer
From the first moments - when you learn that a challenge must be faced - to the final moments when you are given an opportunity to respond - "Even If Its Wrong" lives up to its title and gives us all an opportunity to move forward into our future, regardless of consequences and fears... Todd Pickering has not only crafted a play that brings the reality of love to life but he also brings his play to life through a compelling and thoroughly realistic embodiment of himself...and all of us - as we wi... full review

Desert Warrior

I came to Desert Warrior to see a 'show' and left holding moments of a 'life'... knowing that here was another someone I esteemed and aspired to emulate. In every moment Ross Gosla gives us all that he has and a little bit more. When we leave the theater we can't help thinking about his story. It leaves us hopeful and hoping that some day we might become brave enough to share ourselves with the same kind of truth and intimacy. A real tour de force!... full review

The Sacred Beasts

You might think that there wouldn't be enough room on one stage for Ernest Hemingway and Orson Wells but Chris Wollman's beautifully crafted play brings these two impelling and volatile personalities to life in a way that not only makes sense but to an old Wells fan like me - it spells fulfillment!

I was particularly drawn to the young Wells (Hunter Saling)and the old Hemingway (Richard Malmos) and the fulfillment they brought to beginnings and endi... full review

Mistero Buffo

Masterful! Panos Vlahos brought life with him into the theater and swept us all away for an hour that passed in a dream. A beautiful play that helps us look at life in its totally then choose - fullness or futility. I was inspired and ready to reach out and touch and see the world with fresh eyes. Thank you so much for theater at its best - when it gets under our skin and into our souls...... full review

Bono and The Edge Waiting for Godomino's

marc peter reyna · June 04, 2017 certified reviewer
I am very grateful that I chose ...WAITING FOR GODOMINO'S as my starting point through the many living moments I hope to experience on the Fringe. The cast was strong and impelling, taking me through their comedic repertoire with clarity and aplomb. I was taken in from the first moment as Bono (Richard Lucas) appeared in anticipatory tableau - through to the final payoff before the lights faded down and out. Lucas, who also wrote and directed the piece, was a perfect Bono, moving through each mom... full review
