Physical Comedy at its Finest
I LOVE slapstick and physical comedy and don't feel we see enough of it locally, and this show definitely scratched that itch for me in a big way. Hilarious throughout, it was immediately clear we were in good hands, with each section meticulously planned and expertly executed. Even the crowd participation, which I usually don't enjoy, worked for me in a big way. I hope this wonderful clown comes back and does more theater in the Twin Cities.

Go Down This Rabbit Hole
This production is a beautifully brutal examination of mental decline. Crafting the narrative around Lewis Carol's famous poem was incredibly clever and thoughtful. Edwin Strout's performance is very moving, while the high-caliber lighting and sound design add atmosphere throughout. A thoroughly engrossing and complex piece of theater.

Absolutely Delightful
As an elder millennial who also grew up bonding with their mom through watching television, this show hit home for me in the best way. Beautifully executed and I loved the sing a long aspect with the theme songs, which felt like a big warm hug. Plus, the show is HILARIOUS. I walked out immediately recommending to my friends. If you love sitcoms, great comedy, and endearing storytelling, please put this show on your schedule.
