EYE Review!

The great thing about having a reviewer at your show on opening night is that hopefully many of your friends are there, laughing in the right places and giving you the benefit of the doubt.

The bad thing about having a reviewer at your show on opening night is that perhaps you haven't hit your stride yet and the show, as we noted in our last post, still has room to improve.

The AMAZING thing about having a reviewer at your show on opening night instead of your second show is that at least the slide projector worked on opening night, UNLIKE TODAY, when it inexplicably died at the very beginning of the show and Chris and Rose nearly crapped with fear. So we are thankful that EYE Magazine's Buffy Childerhose was, in fact, there on opening night. Here is her short review:

87% True: The Lies That Bind (3 stars)

A charming but uneven excavation of familial relations, 87% True is the comic tale of two “twins” who discover that they’re not bound by blood but by family narrative and, through dueling recollections and absurd assertions, must divine which of the two is the last of their bloodline, and if that line divides them. BC

Hey - we have no bone to pick with this review. The show IS charming and also, at the moment, a little uneven. AND 3 is Rose's lucky number!!  Good times.

Reading some of the other EYE reviews ("It's a shitfest! 2 stars!"), we feel we got a pretty kind and gentle reviewer. Thank you, Buffy Childerhose! Thank you.
