Fringe-For-All 2—Hey, I'm Talking Murder Here

by Matthew A. Everett • July 23, 2008 • “You’re not here because of your pasty white ass.”

Next to last Fringe-For-All 2 act –

Hey, I’m Talking Murder Here

“Three twisted tales of revenge and murder set in an unexpected future and featuring a bewildered clone, homicidal robot and a couple of talking dogs. Rod Serling, eat you heart out!”

(As you might imagine, I’m partial to talking dogs in the Fringe this year…)

Single White Fringe Geek (and Mom) is the blog of Matthew A. Everett, one of five bloggers covering the Minnesota Fringe Festival for the Daily Planet.


I’ve written elsewhere in this blog about Rhino Productions – they’re a returning favorite from past Fringe blogging Top 10 lists. Check that for the overview.

Nice bunch in the cast (details I didn’t have before) – Samuel Ahern, Celia Forrest, Kara Greshwalk, Trevor Hartman

This was a good solid comedy snippet – a man being interrogated by a doctor (or is he?) about a murder the man committed (or did he?) They dove into the absurdity of the material with gusto and got out on the yellow light. Couldn’t ask for a smoother preview than that. And the YouTube clip is now up on the Fringe’s channel.

Vote Tuesday in primary elections

By Mary Turck , TC Daily Planet

Primary day is Tuesday, September 9. The primary election narrows the field of candidates to one from each party (in party-designated races) or two for each open seat, in non-party-designated races. Each voter may vote on all of the non-party-designated races and in the party primary for candidates of one party only. For example, if a voter chooses to vote in the Independence Party Senate primary, that voter may not cross over to vote in the Democratic Congressional primary. (In the November general election, voters can choose candidates from any party on the ballot) MORE »
