Fringe Review: ‘Keith Brown: A Magic Show’
Amid the growing mob of magicians at the Orlando Fringe, Keith Brown stands out for having the show with the most straightforward concept: no dark personas, tortured storylines or attractive musicians; just a skillful performer and his astounding tricks. If you saw Brown’s previous Fringe appearance, you’ve already seen his showstopping needle-swallowing stunt, but this…
Fringe Review: ‘Blonde Poison’
One-person Fringe shows are often a gamble, especially when you know little about the actor and show beforehand. But Blonde Poison, in which charismatic Oregon actress Carol Adams portrays Jewish Nazi-collaborator Stella Goldschlag, is a gamble worth taking. Blonde Poison Play On! Productions – Silverton, OR 4 DATES THROUGH MAY 27, 2016 Venue: Pink Length:…
Fringe Review: ‘Juggler & Mime: A Tale of Two …’
Joshua ‘Mime’ Palmer is a drab hobo clown with Frank N. Furter eyeshadow; Benjamin ‘Juggler’ Domask is a glam-rock harlequin in a Tom Baker Dr. Who scarf. Together, the pair presents an hour of circus stunts and silent skits in an effort to one-up each other’s showmanship, as the frenemies fling Doritos, flop on the floor,…
Fringe Review: ‘Inescapable’
Have you ever gotten stuck in one of those circular arguments, where the conversation spirals around and around until your déjà vu has déjà vu? Playwright-performer Martin Dockery’s Inescapable takes that familiar feeling and spins it into a tense, brain-twisting two-man drama. Dockery’s unnamed character is already feeling depressed and suspicious over his wife’s waning…
Mother manatee taken to SeaWorld care facilities after being struck by motorboat
Last week, a 1,255 pound mother manatee, along with her calf and an orphaned manatee, were rescued by Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission authorities and taken to SeaWorld care facilities.

Fringe Review: ‘Toiley T. Paper: Roll Model’
Toiley T. Paper is a superstar celebrity, at least in his own two-ply mind, so Orlando Fringe audiences should feel honored that this anthropomorphic bathroom accessory has agreed to entertain at our low-budget festival. Highly absorbent and deeply self-absorbed, Toiley regales us with tales of his showbiz career, from playing Baby Jesus in a living…
Study ranks Salt Lake City above Orlando in ‘Best Summer Travel Destinations’
The greater Orlando area’s heat and rain may be the reason Salt Lake City is the better place to visit this summer, according to a recent study. WalletHub’s study of 2016’s Best Summer Travel Destinations ranked Orlando third, falling expectedly behind Las Vegas but also behind Salt Lake City. Orlando’s multiple theme parks and beaches,…
A Florida police chief gave himself a ticket for this terrible parking job
Last week a Florida police chief shamefully fined himself after being called out on social media for a seriously crappy parking job. The power of a viral social media post called attention to Groveland Police Chief Melvin Tennyson’s parking violation on May 10. The Facebook-wielding vigilante, David Bires, posted photos of the egregious parking job,…
Florida alligator caught stealing watermelon from field in Hendry County
So far this year, we’ve learned that Florida alligators love swimming in other people’s pools, pulling off alleged burglars’ arms and now these greedy reptiles also love other’s people’s fruit, specifically watermelon. The above photo was shot at a farm in Hendry County, Florida and posted to the Florida Agricultural Crimes Intelligence Unit Facebook page,…
In ‘The Meddler,’ Susan Sarandon gives her best performance since ‘Dead Man Walking’ — yes, really
With a trite title and an overused premise, writer-director Lorene Scafaria’s second film could have been both literally and figuratively sophomoric. But thanks to some unexpected maturity and sweetness, and three good performances, The Meddler is the filmmaker’s sophomore project in chronology only. Susan Sarandon (in perhaps her best performance since 1995’s Dead Man Walking)…
Marco Rubio goes off on Twitter over ‘unnamed sources’ and now a parody account is born
Now that his presidential campaign is over, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio has a lot more time to do work in the Senate, but more importantly, he can use the free hours in his day to go on you-don’t-know-me-like-that rants on Twitter. Florida’s senator sent out a series of tweets about unnamed sources speculating to the…
Locally founded Andretti Go-Karting plans massive new complex on Universal Blvd

Fringe Review: ‘Breakneck Hamlet’
Actor-educator Timothy Mooney has been an Orlando Fringe fixture for years with his one-man productions of classic texts, and this year’s Breakneck Hamlet finds his disposition at its most entertainingly antic. Mooney cleverly condenses the Bard’s best and longest tragedy down to an airtight 60 minutes, narrating the action scene by scene with a bit…
Disney shakes up numerous meet-and-greet locations
All of the recent changes at Disney’s Hollywood Studios have now caused their most famous meet-and-greet duo to move. Mickey and Minnie both now have fancy new digs to meet guests. The famous mouse couple moved into the former American Idol audition rooms along with Olaf. Minnie has new digs themed to Old Hollywood with…
Fringe Review: ‘Master of the Rack’
Chess might be, as playwright Ayal Wolf claims, where the “crazies” are, but Scrabble is a close second in inspiring a competitive sprit that borders on insanity. Grumpy tile maven Ted (John Moughan) runs a professional Scrabble players’ association out of a dilapidated building that’s in danger of being dominated by Pomeroy (Mark Davids), the…
Fringe Review: ‘Angelina Sings!’
Part pop cabaret, part psychological intervention, Angelina Sings introduces playwright/actress Nicole Antonia Carro’s newest creation, a Pinot Grigio-guzzling chanteuse who holds court in a suburban New Yawk Knights of Columbus hall since being legally barred from her family’s ristorante after a brawl with her ex-husband’s baby momma. With her disheveled 60s up-do, a kazoo tucked…
Fringe Review: ‘Decades Rewind’

Fringe Review: ‘An Evening With Sarah Pettyfer’
An Evening With Sarah Pettyfer is an odd title for this even odder piece, for two reasons. First, at just 45 minutes, the production is more a brief chat. And second, the character of Sarah exists more as a framing device for a story that has little to do with her. An Evening with Sarah…
Fringe Review: Stewart Huff: ‘Sense Ain’t Common’
Stand-up comic Stewart Huff had recent Fringe audiences rolling in the aisles with his hilarious monologues Donating Sperm to My Sister’s Wife and Darwin vs. Rednecks, but his latest work will make you stretch your brain as well as bust a gut. Sense Ain’t Common, which Huff previewed in Orlando back in March, is a…
Fringe Review: ‘So You Say You Want a Revolution’
If you remember the 1960s (or have at least done hallucinogens and pretended you were there) the music and message of So You Say You Want a Revolution will likely provoke powerful nostalgia for a time when it seemed like a song could change the world. In today’s more cynical age, it may sound ludicrous…
Fringe Review: ‘Simpleton: The Legend of President Trump’
Embracing a new musical genre, the “Trumparody,” Simpleton: The Legend of President Trump will undoubtedly be YUGE at this year’s Fringe.

Alan Grayson bickers with MSNBC host, accuses her of ‘spreading lies’
The race for Florida’s U.S. Senate seat continues to be a circus (see Carlos Beruff calling President Obama an animal and U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy’s paternal financial backer), but U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson took it to a new level last week in a live TV spat with MSNBC host Joy Reid. Reid was asking the Orlando…
Florida woman goes to hospital with nurse shark attached to arm

Fringe Review: ‘In Close Quarters’
If the only thing you know of longtime Fringe Festival favorite Michael Wanzie is his campy comedies and outrageous parody musicals, brace yourself for a shock – his In Close Quarters is one of the most serious, searing dramas I’ve ever seen on the Silver Venue stage. Originally staged more than 20 years ago at…
Fringe Review: ‘Magic, Music and a Little Mayhem’
Most magicians use music as background for their routines, but James and Joshua Songster of Magic and Mayhem put the Fretless Rock trio (Michelle Jones, Elizabeth Chaconas, Yamilet Trujillo) front and center for their Fringe production, which is equal parts concert and illusion show. A sister troupe to Violectric, Jones and company play electrified orchestral…
35 Years Later: Teena Marie – ‘It Must Be Magic’

Fringe Review: ‘Dino World: A Shave-a-saurus Rex’
In a world where mashup musicals spoofing ’80s films have spread across the Fringe, Dino World: A Shave-a-saurus Rex is … yet another one.

Fringe Review: ‘The Unavailable Man Magnet’
As a published author, I can attest that no real-life book signing has ever been as provocative as the one depicted in writer-director Amanda Scheirer’s original play, The Unavailable Man Magnet. Lauren Ashleigh Morrison plays Nessa Reilly, a semi-autobiographical stand-in for the playwright whose roman à clef dishes on her sex life (or lack thereof)…
Fringe Review: ’21 Chump Street’
Based on a true story originally broadcast on public radio’s This American Life, 21 Chump Street tells the tale of Justin (Matthew Roman), a straight-A high-school senior entrapped into dealing weed by Naomi (Alexia Correa), an attractive undercover cop. This mini-musical by Broadway’s current golden boy, Lin-Manuel Miranda, packs more memorable hooks into its 15 brief…
Fringe Review: ‘A Long Time Ago: The Eighties Strike Back’
A Long Time Ago: The Eighties Strike Back starts with a rollerskating R2-D2 (Melina Smart) and a Madonna-esque C-3PO (Lauren Anne Andersson) in a golden Gaultier corset, singing “Video of the Killer Death Star” to the tune of the Buggles’ “Video Killed the Radio Star.” If the thought of that – or references to NES…

Fringe Review: ‘Thomas Jefferson: My Master, My Slave, My Friend’
Alexander Hamilton might have all the Broadway buzz today, but as a fellow alumni of the College of William and Mary I’ve always found Thomas Jefferson to be the more fascinating founding father.

Florence + the Machine set to get big, blue and beautiful at the Amway Center
Fairy tale-sounding tracks with sinister undertones, combined with the soft alt presence of flower crowns, provide a realm in which Florence Welch flourishes. The vocalist and her accompanying Machine have grown since their 2009 debut, but their lyrical and overall essence remains the same: one of opposing forces but also one of light and power.…

Downtown’s first cat café holds a movie night fundraiser – with kitties of course
Even though a good friend visited one of the OG “cat cafés” in Tokyo years ago and sagely commented, “There’s nothing more sad than paying money for a roomful of cats to ignore you,” it’s a business model that has (little, furry, keyboard-playing) legs. Cat cafés have opened stateside and thrived in cities like San…
Colleen Green breezes into Will’s Pub with sweet, grungy melodies
In 2013, the year she released her second solo album, Colleen Green played more than 200 shows.
