Michael D Holloway –
We really enjoyed the show. Great performances and tension. Meredith Lindsay as Diane was delightfully unlikable. Everyone gave just what the show needed. I almost never say this, but I wished it were longer.
Kurtis –
Well done show with a great cast. Very different from most shows you’ll see at Fringe. Dark and serious with a good amount of humor to break the tension. Glad I saw this one.
Ashley Nicole Audette –
What a great show! The cast was incredible and the story kept you guessing until the very end. An awesome combination. A mix of serious and comedic moments that will make you feel every feeling. You don’t want to miss this one!
Jessica Whitfield –
Audrey’s parents have a secret. I won’t spoil the secret for you, you’ll have to watch to find out. It leaves one wondering whether some secrets are better left under wraps or not. Great performances from the cast!
Ruthie Wu –
Truly a show that made me gasp and laugh out loud. The writing is incredible, the set was great, and the way they used it was even better. 10/10 recommend!
Howard –
A show with a fresh perspective along the lines or an updated Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf! Gkad I saw it. Highly recommended.

I was hoping to leave a 5-star review but instead I was turned away at the door because this show was misadvertised on Facebook with the wrong time for weeks. I found out late in the day of the new time and took off work early and drove 45 minutes to be turned away because I was a couple of minutes late. As a theater lover, I completely understand the no-entry policy after a show starts, but in this case I did everything I could to be there and it wasn’t good enough. Until today everything from the show including the Facebook events and graphics said it started at 6:30pm. That 30 minutes of misinformation cost me gas and left me disappointed that I couldn’t be there to support my friends. This was the only night I could go too. Correct marketing matters. Hard to promote a show to others when I didn’t get to see it.
