I attended the first five Hollywood Fringe Festivals before missing last year. I am very excited about attending this year’s event, and will arrive on Saturday, June 11. I am currently scheduled to attend 29 shows, with time for a few more. These are the 10 shows I can’t wait to see (in alphabetical order):
A Feast of Snacks – Theatre Unleashed has consistently put on some of the best productions at every Fringe. This one contains four mini-musicals. How do you top that?
A Horse with a View – I met Chris Piehler last year at the Zootown Fringe Festival and he blew me away with his show. Looking forward to seeing what he has for us this year.
All the Best Killers are Librarians – Sacred Fools is legendary for putting on good theater. Their serial killer series was one that I wanted to see had I been in LA. Since they are offering a couple of them during the Fringe, they immediately went on my list.
Broadway Noir – This show came highly recommended from several of my friends at the Southern California Renaissance Pleasure Faire, so it had to be included.
Gilda: A Tribute to the Beloved Comedienne Gilda Radner – Who doesn’t love Gilda Radner? I was a big fan of the early years of SNL, and can’t wait to see this tribute to Gilda.
Lamprey: Weekend of Vengence – Another play featured in the Sacred Fools Serial Killer series.
My Big Fat Blonde Musical – This one comes highly regarded by my friends at Theatre Unleashed. Plus I love musicals.
The Old Woman – One of my favorite one person show writers is John Grady, and I have seen both of his past two Fringe shows. His new one sounds like a touching tribute to his mother.
The Father, The Son and the Holy Sh!t – Shadley Grei impressed me with his last show, Marshall’s Law. When I found out he was doing a solo show, it immediately went on my list.
Tilt – Two more of my favorite Fringe performers combine in what is sure to be another Fringe winner. Ben Moroski, who brought us the solo winners This Vicious Minute and Wake, and Michael Shaw Fisher, who contributed Doomsday Cabaret, The Werewolves of Hollywood Boulevard and Shakespeare’s Last Night Out, should provide another one with their latest offering. This is probably my most anticipated show
