Company: Greta Mae Geiser
Show: Antistrophe to an Andro-Sapphic Tragedy
Venue: Barbara Barker Center for Dance
Modern Twist on Classical Literature
The performers were spot on. The protagonist represents female trauma and subjugation; it's not a performance for novice theater goers. This is an progressive production.
Company: Amanda Ripley
Show: The Untold Myth of Medusa, The Musical; Part 1
Venue: The Southern Theater
Worthwhile tale of Medusa
This show was better than I expected. Ripley knocked it out of the park with her vocals; she is a powerhouse. Moe was great, too, as Echo. This show could be a musical. Medusa could give Hadestown a run for their money.
Company: Hey Rube!
Show: Yo-Ho-Hum: A Pirate's Midlife Crisis
Venue: Theatre in the Round
Yar, what a Bootyful show!
So well done! I loved this show; it was historically accurate, funny and clever. The cast were fabulous, and their story telling was entertaining. This was a fun show.

Show: One Tree HELL
Venue: Open Eye Theatre
Teen Drama Set in Hell - Love it!
This is a love letter to those of us who hate watched bad teen dramas. It was quirky and fun, the idea of Beverly Hills, 90210 (or the OC and countless others) set in hell was great. Instead of Kelly Taylor and Brenda Walsh, you have Birchney the tree and Tomorrow, the bat creature. Although the cast members did get a little giggly, it was refreshing to see as it's not Stratford upon Avon, it's the Fringe. Loads of fun, always and forever!

Show: Blackout Improv Does Something!!!
Venue: HUGE Improv Theater
Hilarious, Brilliant, Local Talent!
I was looking for fun on a Saturday afternoon and I found it last weekend! Blackout were hilarious, I don't remember the last time I laughed that hard! I loved the format of the show; it was unlike any other Improv show I've seen. I highly recommend this show!
Company: Alex Church
Show: Dutch: Made in America
Venue: Open Eye Theatre
Original, Unique and Innovative
I loved the format of this production. Reagan's rise as seen through a test screening was a creative way to tell his story. Biting and funny, the writing was witty and I learned a few things about Dutch that I never knew. The acting was impeccable; both Kahle and Church were pros, Kahle did branch out a bit more as they were playing multiple roles. This was a brilliant, original piece that was well executed. This was one of my favorites this year!
Company: Emily Boyajian
Show: Transition: A Story of Two Trans People Becoming Themselves
Venue: Mixed Blood Theatre
Brilliant, beautiful and well done!
Wow, this was an impressive show! Emily Boyajian is not only a talented writer, she is a gifted conductor as well. The dialogue between the two leads, Kymani and Gillian was real; their conversations, concerns and discussions were honest and heartfelt. Their voices were absolutely amazing and the orchestra were stellar! I am a cis woman, so I can't speak on behalf of trans women, however, one of my closest friends is a trans woman and the dialogue in this production echoed much of what she has shared with me throughout her journey. I did get a little teary eyed at the end. I highly recommend Transition, especially if you love musical theater!
