4rating = 5 Stars
5review = Extremely surreal, funny, and visually beautiful.
The ensemble put a lot of time into the special effects, and they are mesmerising.

5review = Well, it's art. You may be bored, titillated, repulsed, attracted,or giggling appropriately or inappropriatly, but it is art, or more specifically, Fringe art.There are some cool black light effects, some amaturish pseudo-fantasy elements, and some simple head scratching moments. Did I "like" it? no. Should anyone who wants a true fringe experience see it? YES! You won't see glow in the dark swordfighting, large sumo-like men with big phalluses smearing makeup on you, or gratuitous cheese-throwing at ACT! and it still is more creative than the bus.

5review = Kabuki sensibilities as seen by techno-stoners, sorta.
These guys could be dangerous if they ever take themselves seriously...like a good Peanuts comic strip, you wonder if they even know the different levels they are working at.
As with last years offering from this troupe, you'll leave scratching your head and chuckling; these guys really keep the Fringe on the fringe. Occasionally they stay too close to the genre they should be subverting. But nice work with the black light effects.

play = Neo surrealists Black Lite Kabuki
name = Carlos Pollo
rating = 5 stars
review = 'MOMIX'- esque. . . super psychodelic blacklight.
The audience should be assured that no cheese was harmed during the performance (except for the cheese break)

5review = original, silly, historically (hysterically) accurate.

Play: Blacklight Kabuki
Name: Richard V. Lynch III
Rating: 5 stars
Review: Great ( if ridiculous) plot and black light effects. The swordfight was perfect, as was the Mountain's King's Kabuki voice.
