Hollywood Fringe 2022: SOMETHING IN THE AIR @ Hudson Theatre – Review

Where is the in-between? In the wake of the anti-Asian hate crimes across our country, Something In The Air is a play that focuses on the lives of eight very different Asian/Asian-American college students living in America. These eight individuals come from different walks of life and from all over the diaspora, representing the diverse realities of AAPI college students in the country. They arrive at the infamous Denver Airport, ready to take flight for spring break, and, given its otherworldly nature– are forced to deal with issues within fiction and reality. A story that combines mystery, conspiracy theories, myths, and generational stories. Taken for the website.

Hollywood Fringe 2022: The Tanner @ Broadwater – Review

A searing portrayal of the reality of the battles fought by the Scottish freedom fighter William Wallace, as seen through the eyes of a common soldier (The Tanner). This stunning play shows the brutality of war and the heavy costs paid by the ordinary men and their families who choose to follow the leaders, nobles and clan chiefs into combat – in these instances, to win back their freedom from the oppressive forces of a foreign monarch. The macabre twist that ends the play speaks to the vengeance wrought by those who lose so much. Taken from the website.

Hollywood Fringe 2022: The Lost Continent of Atlantis & Vine @ Broadwater – Review

Though the show is a one man musical set within the walls of the fabled Atlantis & Vine, the full length version would find Steve returning to reclaim it just as a powerful figure is bent on razing to build a casino. Atlantis and Vine itself represents America….and the similarities between two super civilizations is immediate. One powerful and prolific self-made civilization rose into greatness, then swirled into the unwatched eye of catastrophic self-destruction… and the other …is edging toward that very same brink. Taken from the website.

Hollywood Fringe 2022: Camp Ginger: An Original Musical @ The Actors Company – Review

Steve Trzaska plays multiple characters in this one-person musical about finding and embracing one’s true identity. This semi-autobiographical show touches on various issues including bullying, sexual abuse, puberty, and coming to terms with your sexuality. This heartfelt production deals with those issues head on with a comedic (and musical) approach. Taken from the website.

Hollywood Fringe 2022: Beautiful Monsterz @ Broadwater – Review

In this modern riff on Oscar Wilde’s classic, “The Picture of Dorian Gray,” Dorian becomes Lori Anne Green, a beautiful but naïve college grad recently recruited as the spokesmodel for the “Ever Young” line of cosmetics. Suddenly thrust into the spotlight, and under the very bad influence of her ad agency’s decadent director, Lori is slowly seduced into a hidden world where she determines to savor every debauched and divine experience her new double life now affords. In this edgy, witty, sexy, and darkly funny send-up, Steven Vlasak, the award-winning author of previous Hollywood Fringe Festival hits “Nights at the Algonquin Round Table” and “Disrobed,” sets out to roast our current culture’s obsession with celebrity and privilege, and the very real possibility that looks can kill, with the temptations that “being famous for being famous” offer to the personalities that we, perhaps, secretly think we wish we were. Taken from the website.

McCoy Rigby Entertainment presents : In the Heights @ La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts – Review

(PHOTO CREDIT: TAKE Creative)

In the Heights tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood – a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music. It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams and pressures, where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take with you, and which ones you leave behind. Written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton), this hip musical will win you over with its sweet story and hot tunes! Taken from the website.
