Fringe Festival 2009, Part 3

The Further Adventures of Antoine Feval (9 out of 10)
Style: Traditional play
This play has everything. Comedy, drama, and an explanation of Canadian culture. Chris Gibbs continues to be funny and intelligent. He is a master of self-deprecating humor. It is easier to write a review if you list all the things you disliked about a play. I can’t think of anything.

The Art of Being a Bastard (6.5 out of 10)
Style: Traditional play
This was actually very educational. It might have been better titled, “How to Pick Up Girls in Bars”. I should have taken notes. Not incredibly funny but I had a good time.

Unsolicited Letters (3 out of 10)
Style: Traditional play
They did put an honest try into making a good play. And it was a good first try. But they didn’t have enough content. There was only one plot-line in the play and it wasn’t big enough for the 50 minutes they allotted. It felt like it was dragging at points. I’m glad I got to see it for free, although I would have preferred not to see it at all.
