In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains “otherwise engaged,” the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. Hey, a girl can scheme, can’t she?

KISS AROUND PASS AROUND presented by Shoshinz as part of the 2015 Cincinnati Fringe Festival.
You can read the show description here.
When my niece was little, she would pull together a mish-mash of toys and spend hours creating her own little adventures. There is the same kind of simplicity and imagination in KISS AROUND, PASS AROUND.
Japanese performer Yanomi is a joy to watch. Her energy and charisma are infectious. As Kiss Around, Pass Around, she quickly had the audience under her quirky spell. Just thinking about the show makes me smile. A truly unique experience.
Perhaps the fringe-iest entry of the year. It’s definitely a Fringe experience I’ll remember for years. Three performances remain through June 5.
I would enjoy hearing what you think about the show or my review. All I ask is that you express your opinion without attacking someone else’s opinion. You can post your comments below

HITCHHIKERS MAY BE INMATES presented by Clifton Performance Theatre as part of the 2015 Cincinnati Fringe Festival.
You can read the show description here.
Again this year, while Clifton Performance Theatre’s entry may not be the fringe-iest show in the festival, it certainly offers some of the best performances in the festival.
Local professional actors Michael Bath and Kevin Crowley are excellent in this three-scene one act. Both characters are on the tightrope of sobriety. As new AA-member and emotionally-fragile Dave, Bath gives a great nerd-to-jock quality to his relationship with J.D.
Crowley is great to watch in the role of J.D. There is this constant intensity coming from the character. I enjoyed how you were never really sure if J.D. was working to steady Dave on that tightrope or push him off of it. His transformation of J.D. for the final scene is mesmerizing to watch. Kudos also have to go out to Evan Verrilli as the line-less Waiter. Your body language and facial expressions were so much fun.
For a show that is mainly two guys at a table talking, director Buz Davis keeps the energy high and the blocking dynamic. He makes the well-written script by Crowley, shine.
Definitely a favorite of this year’s festival. Seeing these two on stage together for $15 is a steal. Three performances remain through June 6.
