Complete Dance Show
This show held up from beginning to end. The dance was gorgeous and moved seamlessly from piece to piece. I always try and catch at least one dance show at the Fringe and this one rewarded me for choosing it.

Funny and warm one-woman show
What a wonderful show! You know how people will describe movies like "Almost Famous" as a love letter to rock and roll or "Cinema Paradiso" is a love letter to movies? This show is a love letter to pop culture through the star's unique perspective. Anyone who has felt moved by a piece of pop culture will identify with the joy and sincerity of Janelle's 45-minute performance. Through the music, movies, TV dance, comedy and more that have meant something to her, she reminds us of the things that have found permanent spots in our hearts -- and how grateful we are to have them. And in her unabashed expression of love for these things, she creates and invites us into our very own piece of culture. I came into this show as a friend of Janelle, but I promise you, my enthusiasm for this show is for its sincerity and purity of vision. Shows like this are what Fringe is for!
