We tried. We really did. We’ve been grinding and coding and testing for months now, but we’ve finally come to the realization that it’s better to do it right, than to do it…
Hey, they asked and we accepted. As I mentioned in this article about a month ago, it’s either going to be one of the most interesting “shows” at the Fringe, or the most bo…
Yes indeedy, yes indeedy. Been bustin’ my booty getting this thing ready for the unwashed masses and we’re almost there. Love to see some of the LemonHeadNation there on opening …
Forwarded to me by Christian Levatino (thanks, Tino!) and grabbed off the Facebook page of Tim Sullivan, here is an absolutely bizarre story that carries with it a multitude of professional …
A-Burn at his best. An authentically “Los Angeles” voice no doubt. Not many can draw out the metaphors between stage and city better than this dude. HIT Anthony Byrnes – KC…
“This ninety minute show is, simply, a pleasure. Having recently been dismissed from A Noise Within's critic list (probably for being impatient with their inferior Macbeth this season)…
Not, of course, to be confused with their “mission statement” which is this: The Theatrical Producers League of Los Angeles is a trade association comprised of theatrical produce…
Besides the Opening and Closing Night parties, this is probably one of the funnest events connected to the Fringe. Plus it helps the Fringe Folk pay for all the shizzle they’ll be dizz…
It can’t be a review. It just can’t. I don’t think it’s a preview. I’m pretty sure it’s not a press release. If it is it’s a really badly written on…
To all of our warriors past and present, especially those that have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep us free. Thank you. Miss you somethin’ fierce, pop.
Y’all may have noticed a hollow sound reverberating over the last couple of Sundays. No COWs. That’s right. Because every fucking review I read over the last two weeks sucked! No…
Tony the Frank writes a poem about a play. Call it self-indulgent, call it disrespectful, I call it a pretty good read. And oddly, filled with what appears to be a genuine angst. DIFFERENT W…
“It’s astonishing that CTG, which continues to bill itself as “L.A.’s Theatre Company,” can’t find more interesting stories in the immensely diverse commu…
That’s right I just wrote about myself in the third person. It’s very freeing, you should try it. Anyhoosiers, Dale Reynolds, theater critic over at Stagehappenings, was kind eno…
And what is this Trailer Park Award (TPA) you might ask? Here’s the skinny: Bitter Lemons and Combined Artform in collaboration with the Hollywood Fringe Festival would like to invite …
I had absolutely no intention whatsoever to keep working on this story. None. Frankly, writing these types of articles take more out of me than they give back. Nevertheless, I find they are …
What’s the fucking point people? And I pose this question to everyone involved, to Storiale, the writer, Jessica P. Ogilivie and the editors over at LA Weekly, as well as all the other…
“To judge from Mr. LaBute's body of work, one can imagine him as a child attending a performance of Peter Pan and clapping his hands bloodied to bring "Tink" back to life.Only to see h…
According to Paul Storiale they are. Storiale contacted me last week wondering whether I’d like to hear his story. I said I would listen. I first asked him why he was contacting Bitter…
This sounds like shite-loads of fun. Especially the live-band karaoke. Love me some live-band karaoke. Hope they roll that out again for this year’s Fringe. If you’ve never seen …
And this is why. Only a Scot could get into a bonafide row with a lift. Hi-fuckin’-larious.
Been meaning to post this for a while now. But then again I’ve been meaning to do a lot lately THAT I JUST CAN’T FIND THE FUCKING TIME TO DO! Why am I shouting? Must be the heat&…
In 2011, year two of the Fringe Festival, the Fringe folk set up a tent at their Fringe Central which was at the currently named Schkapf location (formerly Artworks Theatre). It was a revela…
 “It’s not that theater is only worth seeing if it has movie actors in it; that would be a horrible thing to say that I would never say, and not only because I do not want to…
