Show Description
Have you ever asked yourself “What is this show?” “Harry & Perry’s 100th One-Man Show” will definitely and defiantly answer that question.

Paying homage to Fringe Festivals past, present and future, Harry and Perry will prove to everyone what’s at the very heart of each and every Fringe Festival one-man show – budget traveling.

Kelsey Coon –
So many props! So many laughs! So many shows – in one!
Forest Kinsey –
These two have great chemistry, their jokes are as corny as they are delightful, and the amount of dildos is just right!
CRL –
I loved this show! It’s great for people who love Fringe, and for people who don’t know they do!
Aaron Mayer –
Non stop silliness! I felt like I saw all of fringe in one show! I must be done now. Also, I’m pretty good at figuring out twist endings, but I didn’t see this one coming!
Russell Galloway –
My cheeks hurt from laughing! Silly in the best possible way. I didn’t want it to end. So much fun!
JT –
What a fun show. The interplay between the performers is so good. This show is so witty and has a great heart to it. I’m sad I missed their previous 99 shows.
Seth –
What a wild ride! I’d have thought this was their 500th show with how good the chemistry is. Might have to catch this multiple times!
Aleyoiss –
I loved the silliness of the whole thing. The people deserve to have the 101st show and I demand more Perry and Harry’s shows. I laughed so much, these two were a delight to watch. This is a show you don’t want to miss if you want to burst with joy.
Cameron Smith –
Such a fun show filled with jokes and wordplay every minute. Cody and Jill were having such a great time and sharing it with the audience
Maggie C –
A must-see! Harry & Perry brilliantly toe the line between clever and downright stupid comedy, while overall being incredibly smart. Both actors are superb and have fantastic chemistry as they bounce bits back and forth like the silliest ping-pong match. I was very entertained from beginning to end. Put it on your list!!

So silly in the best way!
David –
Harry and Perry make a charming duo as they recollect their histories with the Fringe Festival. I loved their vignettes of every former Fringe show either of them have done, each one being more absurd and silly than the last. I’m looking forward to the next 100 shows from Harry and Perry, I know they’ll put as much heart into them as they did for their first 100 shows.

Cody and Jill command your attention this whole production. Both hilarious in their own ways, while exploring the comedy that exists in the Fringe community. Definitely a little inside baseball if you’ve never been to Fringe, but if it’s not your first rodeo, you’ll appreciate the gentle jabbing of Fringe culture and clichés. Definitely was audience members in Fringe shirts laughing loudly at some of the jokes. But impressive in so many ways.

This was downright delightful! Cody and Jill are brilliant, their chemistry is perfect, and it just seemed like they were having so much fun playing together. The joy was infectious. Wonderful!
Danielle Anderson –
A fantastic and fast paced inside joke! There are so many gems, props, and premises that highlight that wacky nature of Fringe shows, the history of theater, and our current world! Whether or not you’ve been to Fringe before, the depth of the inside joke goes so far into itself, it comes out the other side, finding humor on multiple levels, and moving quick to keep our attention. Jill and Cody are a knock out team! Their interplay is so smooth and well paced, it’s like dancing.
Marian McClellan –
What a great comedic romp!! They both are genius in writing and performing. I’ll come back at least one more time. Thanks!!
Jessy B. Goode –
An absolute laugh riot! So many jokes, so many hilarious sound cues and the whole time I was rooting for them! They did not disappoint!!
Garrett Sauer –
No other one-man show performed by two people has ever made me laugh like this. You’ll never guess where the googly eyes end up.
Amanda Matteucci –
Amazing performance by Jill and Cody!! Charming! Funny! Silly! A spot on parody of Fringe.
Trish –
Just. Freaking. Delightful. Cody and Jill are two of the funniest performers in Kansas City, and they packed this show full of hilarious moments. The writing, pacing, characters, show names, props, tech, bits…everything hit. I’m convinced you could see it half a dozen times and still find new stuff to laugh at. You know so much went into it—but they make it look effortless. Love it to pieces.
LMM –
So funny! I am in awe of the material they created. I’ve seen 12 shows so far. This ranks in my top three. Go see it!!

You might ask, “How can a show with two people be called a one-man show?” You will have to see it to get the answer to that question. So many literary references! So many jokes! So many costume changes! So many props! Never a dull moment. You will LOVE this show.
