The whole thing was just too transparent. I suppose someone who has not
had any exposure to topics of corporate abuse might have found the plotline
less obvious, but for me is was boring. I can see the acting talent there,
but the characters did a bad job bringing this out. Good try, keep working
at it.

Just got out of the Sat. 2:30 show. FUNNY!
Excellent story, played by what appears to be a group whom have worked together
before, Many, Many, Times Before. I loved it. And by no means am I any kind
of professional critic. Actually I don't think I even know how to spell
Thespian. I think. My vote is CornTato, Best of Fringe 2005. See it if you
can! (insert icon of enjoyment HERE)

I was fully entertained as were the rest of the audience judging by all
the laughter. Corntato is a satirical romp with an engaging and funny story
packed with fast paced jokes and good physical acting. The characters are
all over the top wacky and supply fringe goers with a much needed boost
after viewing many of the slow pretentious and bloated acts that seem to
infest the Fringe. You got it right Corntato, hope to see you guys again.

Right on!
Corntato was not only completely entertaining and well-crafted, but it also
had an original and fresh story that keeps you on your toes!........and
funny! As a matter of fact, if you want to enjoy an intelligent and witty
experience...this is the real deal. P.S. The crunchy treats are just a cool
bonus!*****

These guys are amazing! They combine an intelligent, well-written script
that deftly and hilariously skewers so much of what is going on today (not
just "frankenfood" but corporate America, the media, marketing,
the government, and more) with the precise timing, physicality, and sheer
wackiness of classic screwball comedies. Watching them is like watching
the Flying Wallendas, they work together so well and so fearlessly. (I'm
not sure if it's in the program, but they're the group who performed "Fantastic
Product" at the 2001 Fringe.)

Best show I've seen this weekend. Truly funny stuff, filled with a lot of
subtle jabs at our culture. It is quite refreshing to see a show that is
not filled with pretension while still being a quality product.

Corntato moves right along, and includes quite a few good laughs, but it
tries to do too much (there are just too many stereotypes being skewered
here). The on-stage antics are fun, though

2 for effort only! The best thing about the piece--they threw out bags of
chips (suppose to be CornTatos) that were pretty fresh and tasty and a nice
change from the pretzels in the lobby |
