CINCINNATI, OH – Following critically acclaimed, sold-out runs in NYC and at the 2017 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Peter Michael Marino’s semi-improvised, semi-scripted, solo comedy SHOW UP makes its Cincy Fringe debut May 31-June 9 at First Lutheran Church Lounge.
This one-man, comedic, interactive, improvised spin on the traditional solo show is all about the good, bad and ugly experiences of the audience – who also lend a hand in the set & sound design. And there’s a party!
