Didn’t see anyone under 40 laughing
The joke is different rewordings of promising he’s not a Nazi and that he’s kind of oppressed for it but also that he’s not.

Venue: Augsburg Studio
Energy and Charisma
Great connection to the audience, and grounding in the work. An entertaining fringe slot, and something fresh to the one-person show experience. Something I'm usually not huge on, but musicbyskippy gave it a new feel!
Company: Six Elements Theatre
Show: Kill B: The Epilogue
Venue: Augsburg Mainstage
Final for a Stage Combat Class
Another review here puts it together in more words for me. Some fun nostalgia connecting to the Kill Bill memories of my youth, but not enough to base an entirety of a performance on it.
Company: Flavorade Foucault
Show: Shark Grant
Venue: Rarig Center Xperimental
Kudos for Improv
Improv is hard, and worth the risk for me to see. This one did not land for me.

Company: Lady Chamberlain Productions
Show: 4 Bisexuals and 2 Guys Named John Kill Dracula
Venue: Rarig Center Arena
Lack of Sincerity
The story was interesting, but did not see the sincerity, or truth in much of the path from A to B.
Company: Blinking Eye Theatre
Show: Romeo & Juliet Are Dead
Venue: Rarig Center Arena
Impressive Framing
As someone who is a Shakespeare nerd, this was a fun post-story story. The familiarity of introducing you to the new story and characters you are about to see, makes it an easy one to get into right away.
Company: Clevername Theatre
Show: Mother Courage Bear and Her Children
Venue: Southern Theater
Clevername is the Company Name
Like the quote from a quote from The Office: "'You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.' - Wayne Gretzky” - Michael Scott." but pretend Brecht said the quote, and it was made silly. One star added because, it's a marketable idea for fringe (rewriting... or substituting a script that already would appeal to people, even without a gimmick). It's hard to think of this as a literary adaptation, when it's just making a historical script quirky.
Company: Sandbox Theatre
Show: Yes No Maybe (please explain)
Venue: Rarig Center Thrust
Nice Story, Rushed Production
There was something of substance in the story that was being told, but the scenes throughout felt like scenes that needed to happen to keep the show long enough. Lost me throughout.
Company: Fortune’s Fool Theatre
Show: The Resilient Child
Venue: Augsburg Mainstage
Vulnerable and Introspective
You can feel the truth in this performance, both as a viewer to someone else's stories, and connecting truth to your own. The cast all had a substantial "solo" contribution to an ensemble show.
