Welcome to Twirly’s Traveling Tricks – a great new Fringe show where the language is made up and the jokes don’t matter. Tucked away in Studio C, this one-clown, 45-minute showcase produced by Dana Benedict is a riotously chaotic romp full of physical comedy, song and dance, and a thoroughly demolished Fourth Wall. twirly’s traveling […]
Outer space has always been a somewhat difficult concept for me. Even the word itself – space – implies a vast, incomprehensible emptiness. This year’s Hollywood Fringe Festival brings us The Pod, the brainchild of creators Nick Rheinwald-Jones (SpyBrunch) and Katelyn Schiller (Lucid Dramatics), and a euphoric love letter to that unknowable plane. Macora […]
It’s back! That special time of year when immersive audiences are treated to a month-long deluge of new works running the gamut of every tone and style imaginable. Whether you crave emotionally intense one-on-one encounters in a private space, mystery and intrigue on the streets of Los Angeles, or a relaxed evening at the theater […]

MB Stage Productions’ The Study, which premiered at the 2018 Hollywood Fringe Festival, really started out great: an audience attends a science class to discuss fear, but instead of slides and experiments, several “students” are sent on a trip directly into a horror movie, and those that remain must observe and dictate the outcome of […]
Henrik Ibsen’s Ghosts, penned in 1881, can’t be described as the most accessible text ever written, but its criticism of 19th century morals and the controversy surrounding its content is still an inspiration to modern playwrights. Due to its content Ghosts was, to say it generously, not universally praised at its initial release. But it’s […]
Unreal City, Under the brown fog of a winter dawn A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many, I had not thought death had undone so many. Sighs, short and infrequent, were exhaled, And each man fixed his eyes before his feet. -T.S. Eliot, “The Wasteland” I’m being led down the cracked streets of […]
A dingy bar traps seven souls. A young man paces the room, only to stop and slam his glass down onto a table. A young girl rests with her head laid down on the bar. A studious man quietly reads the Bible. A provocatively dressed woman sneaks glances at a bearded man fiddling with his […]
Annie Lesser’s “Death and Coffee” is a casual, heavy chat between audience member and lesser about the loss of her Grandfather. It’s both moving and self-reflective. A “must” of the Fringe.
