CFF23: My Fringe Show Rankings

QCF_Ruh-Roh!The question I get asked most by people with limited time and resources is, which shows are a “must see.” And I give them my bias answer, based on how I reacted to the shows. Please understand that differences between shows in the rankings can be infinitesimal. And I guarantee everyone’s list is different and just as valid.

And if you do decide to attend, I highly recommend you look at all the options. Aside from the fact that there are still plenty of shows I just haven’t seen yet. If a show sounds interesting to you, I highly encourage you to see it. Grab a friend, split a flex pass and hit three shows. You never know what you might discover. Happy Fringing.

My Rankings

  1. RUH-ROH!
    Jordan Trovillion & Trey Tatum return for the final chapter of the adventures of the teen sleuth and her faithful dog companion. Imaginative, clever and funny, RUH-ROH! is a satisfying finale and completely accessible even if you have not seen the previous installments.
  2. BLOODLINES
  3. HEART RIPPED OUT TWICE AND SO CAN YOU!
  4. 1NCE UPON A LIE
    Paul Strickland is back with new tall tales from his latest visit to Aunt True and Uncle False. Funny, heartfelt and with the clever word-play you expert from this master storyteller.
  5. THE REMBRANDT JOB
    Ocean’s Eleven they aren’t. A fun, tongue in cheek retelling of a bizarre but true art theft at Cincinnati’s Taft Museum. Dale Hodges narrates the story as one of the missing works and Paul Morris shines as the sleazy Jim Hough.
  6. THREAD AND BONE
  7. JULIE
  8. MADE IN AMERICA
