Gabriel’s Corner
Over-the-Rhine 

Written and performed by Kurt Fitzpatrick

SEX, DEATH, and STEPHEN KING! “Fitzpatrick bops along in a rapid-fire whirl of pop culture references, personal revelations, goofy side-trips into B-movie Adventureland, and musings on mortality. There’s something endearing about Fitzpatrick as he opens up to strangers on stage, almost daring them to take his wild ride.” – Fresno Bee. “A Fringe experience par excellence. ★★★★★” – Nuvo, IndyFringe.
