Brilliant Artistic Excellence

Jack Donkey Productions has delivered yet another knockout performance with “503,” a production that exemplifies everything that makes me want to go to Fringe. As they did with “Dumb Waiter” last year. The staging is masterful, with every choice feeling deliberate and inspired. The company’s innovative use of space with every show creates an intimate yet expansive theatrical experience that draws you in completely. The story unfolds with compelling complexity, and while I haven’t read “We” it feels like a novel I now need to read… What makes “503” truly spectacular is how all the elements work in perfect harmony with a fast paced story in under an hour – there are a couple of chairs, and a white sheet, and yet it feels like I just left a vision I’ve never seen before. Jack Donkey Productions continues to prove why they’ve built such a devoted following – they consistently deliver work that reminds you why live theater matters. “503” stands apart as truly unmissable. Add this one to the top of your must-see list immediately.
