2026 Audience Reviews

Company: an alleged Theatre Company
Show: FAST Death of a Salesman
Venue: Rarig Stoll Thrust Theatre

Ridiculous laughs from start to finish

I'm used to seeing Motz solo his Fringe shows, so how to review him as part of an ensemble production? His regular onstage mix of bluster and vulnerability is enhanced by his group of BFA students tasked with making Death of a Salesman relevant to his tablet-zombified nephew, but the entire cast enlivens the endeavor with a range of out-of-left-field approaches to his dilemma, creating a whole greater than the sum of its excellent parts.

Company: The Winding Sheet Outfit
Show: A Confluence of Magical Arseholes
Venue: Rarig Stoll Thrust Theatre

Silly, chaotic, bawdy fun

A hilarious telling of an apparently infamous beef at the highest levels of an occult organization you may or may not have heard of. Some dialogue gets lost in the chaos, but director Amber reliably pops in in meta mode to smooth over the details. Minus half a kitty for crosstalk/my crappy hearing, but this is the kind of show you come to Fringe to see.

Company: Cleo Torres
Show: Happy Valley Regional's Boot-Scootin' Booty-Poppin' Cuntry Ho-Down
Venue: Rarig Nolte Xperimental Theatre

Great to spectate or participate!

This was a fun first show of my Fringe: an argument over different dance styles to be taught leads to a variety show of styles, with audience participation encouraged. The cast had fun working the crowd in the run-up to start time, warming us up for the show to come. This is a great show to get you moving between spectator-only hours of theatre, and we were promised a different experience in subsequent shows. Check this one out!
