Immersive creator Annie Lesser has produced something different this year, something positive. If you’re unfamiliar with her more recent work, her shows tend to be dark and heavy, like her highly praised A(partment 8). But this year for the Hollywood Fringe Festival, she wants to put smiles on faces and spread good vibes to all […]
The Hollywood Fringe Festival is a place where veteran performers and creators can stretch their wings and try things outside their comfort zones. It is also a place where newcomers can dip their toes into the enormously deep pool that is the Los Angeles theater scene. Some shows rise above the rest, while others fall […]
Bob. Middle-aged, trying-too-hard-to-make-a-good-impression Bob. He wanders through darkened corridors, his only company a flickering flashlight to guide the way and the fear of impending doom breathing down his neck. Joyce and Jim Hopper plead for him to be careful through his walkie-talkie, but he presses on. “Go,” he chants to himself, over and over. He turns […]
Come in, sit down, and hold on tight – Dandy Darkly’s All Aboard is a riveting, hilarious, and completely unexpected ride through a tightly woven web of Afro-Caribbean myth, folk storytelling traditions, sharp humor and social commentary, and Southern gothic sensibilities. This one-man performance is the first time the Hollywood Fringe Festival has been privileged […]
No shirt, no pants, no shoes; not a problem! With the collective effort of three naturist associations… behind… them, naturists are back at the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2019 with Disrobed! The Start The Studio/Stage theater, Fringe stop number 9, is an unassuming place that’s facilitating the spectacularly avant garde; nearly fifty entirely nude […]

A woman screams in the blackness, what transpired hidden from sight, our imaginations taking over. The lights brighten. The chorus of black cats, reminiscent of Fosse dancers mixed with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats, slinks back to their chairs, their predatory instincts now sated. Angel, the titular Hell’s Kitty, cleans the red ribbon of blood from […]
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 […]
