Challenging and High Energy
Rating: 5
Fear and Trembling
KC Fringe Festival
Cascading rhythms and challenging vocabulary are the trademark of this show that launches into a high energy review of urban secrets and myths.
Leave your white picket fence behind as you explore deep into a cities underbelly and are transported by a series of short stories tied together through the actor's personal journey.
A graphic description of rape and torture in one piece made me squirm. However, I was drawn in completely and the resolution of that tale was much more meaningful.
The final legend features an impossibly ugly unicorn. That story felt purifying after descending down such a dark path and finally rising back up out of the depths.
I was emotionally engaged and intellectually trying to keep up throughout the evening. A pleasant combination!
A well-structured piece told by a paramour of words and travel who finally found his true love - his city.
