Company: Eye of Jupiter Theatre
Show: The Greenhouse
Venue: The Southern Theater

Really enjoyable, weird, show

Really enjoyed this creepy piece of dramatic theatre. It was easy to imagine what this show would be like with a fully realized set, but the Southern Theatre also served as a great backdrop for a show about life, death, growth, and decay. The script was well written (I especially enjoyed the dialogue involving the two youngest characters) and the performances were overall strong. I really liked the use of diegetic music in scene changes - in a longer version of the show I'd love to see that element expanded. Definitely a show to add to your short list!


Company: The Blair Kitsch Project
Show: DIVINE/GYPSY
Venue: Barbara Barker Center for Dance

Absolutely "Divine"

What. A . Wild. Ride. Truly a roller-coaster of a show. I laughed, I cried, I cringed, I LOVED IT. From the minute I entered the theatre, I couldn't take my eyes off Blair Kitsch, who absolutely sucks you in and never lets you go. Mink Hole and Pistachio Creampie are also fantastic - it's cool to see a show like Gypsy done with such a small, strong cast. Well done!


Company: WonderJ Studio
Show: Janelle Did You Know You Talk Really Fast?
Venue: Barbara Barker Center for Dance

Lacking cohesion

This show opened to an audience full of folks who clearly know the performer, and while it's great to see so much support, it also seemed that the show was written for those people and those people only. I would describe the format of the show as more like a stand up routine than a variety show - one with a number of inside jokes that left me feeling excluded. The tech elements were more distracting than they were supportive of the narrative (although I like K-pop, I found myself watching the videos more than the performer). Overall, the performer spoke clearly and the individual monologues were easy enough to follow, but the show as a whole lacked cohesion.
