Hey there..

Anyone going? Anyone have thoughts on a good show? I'm not much of a theatre guy but my GF wants us to check it out.

Thanks, I appreciate the reply. I've read through them.. some of them interest me but you never know if they have bad actors, bad direction etc..
I guess I'll just wait and see for now until the reviews come out.
Although the one that has the photo of Jesus with an AK47 has me intreagued.

Rinardo.

Don't Wait!

My advice as someone who has been working the Fringe Fest for years, is don't wait to see what shows are good or not...by the time reviews come out, you probably won't get a chance to see the best of the best at the festival.

Read the descriptions, pick something that sounds interesting, and take your chances. It's not expensive, so you don't have all that much to lose.

If I can make a couple suggestions (I have NOTHING to do with these shows)

Brilliant Traces @ Factory Studio
YYZ/LAX @ Factory Main
Hip Hop 4 Dumeez @ Poor Alex
A Quiet Place @ Robert Gill

are all shows I've either seen (Hip Hop) or HEARD good things about...

Hope it helps!

Great advice. The Fringe is about taking risks so put the schedule on a wall and throw darts at it. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for the info.

I checked out "The Promise Breakers"

And I'll be going to Sarsical and Sex and our City also.

I'll check out the others you recommended and see if I can squeeze them in.
