AUDIENCE REVIEWS

“I cackled. I gasped. I was on the edge of my seat. It’s a chaotic, sharp, hilarious, and deeply sympathetic example of the archetype of the fool.

This show is a frisky satire of patriarchal delusion and cosmic insignificance, with a flawed protagonist you can’t help but root for.”

— Audience member

Alice Gillette dressed as Meat Show from her solo show (one woman show) "Meat Show in Space" at the Denver Fringe Festival. She's an alt-comedy and clown performer.

“This show felt like peak Adult Swim.

I was lost in pure joy at following the adventures and the strange twists that kept unfolding, and there are visuals that are just burned in my brain.

The live scoring and voiceovers are a delightful dose of energy and character that give it an extra dimension of life.”

— Audience member

“I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING!”

— Audience member

“Playfully poignant.”

— Audience member

“Meat Show masterfully delivers complex, insightful themes in a delightfully dadaist package.

A one-of-a-kind, must-see show!”

— Audience member

“Wildly funny, surprisingly touching, and a glorious demonstration of modern clown by a masterful creator in full bloom.”

— Audience member

“You don't want to miss this.”
