Press!


Hey there, we just wanted to let you all in on some of the press we've been getting for orange!

Blogger Matthew Everett has given us 4/5 stars, and touts the acting skill of one Sarah Duane.

A friend of ours over at the Rake has just published an interview with none other than us!

And don't forget our audience reviews! Here are some of my favorites:

"it has been a while since I've seen some nice unibomber references. I definitely recommend it for people who enjoy awkwardness and excessive violence of the every day man. Oh, you also have to enjoy fun. And enjoying laughing helps too, because that will happen if you see this show." -Mandi Johnson

"This clever and entertaining script has a nice awkwardness that captures the uncomfortable feelings associated with terrorism and office life. The play is well-worded, campy, over-the-top, and delightfully sophomoric, making it very enjoyable Fringe fare. I look forward to seeing what else this young company has in mind." -John Heimbuch
"Strong performances from talented cast, an excellent script, and extraordinary directing bring this show to life..." -Eric Handler

Profiles in Orange: Quentin Kennedy

First things first - Fringe is officially open!!! Hooray! Ben and I have already seen our first show -Boys Don't Make Passes at Girls who Wear Glasses" and were utterly charmed by Curt and Laura's tales of lovelorn nerd-dom.

Our show opens Saturday August 2nd at 4:00 at Mixed Blood and our fabulous Bring 2 Get in Free Deal is still available for opening night, so shoot Ben an email (ben dot egerman at gmail dot com) so we can set aside a complimentary ticket for you.

And now the long awaited final edition of our "Profiles in Orange" series - an interview with the elusive Quentin Kennedy, who plays neurotic job applicant Evan. This has been deemed a "very special" PIO, and you'll see why.
