Today, day 2 aka Saturday was a get a really cool toy but then you have to go to Grandmaâ??s day. You know when for whatever reason you finally got a snazzy toy youâ??ve been waiting for forever but then you have to leave it because you have to go to Grandmaâ??s house. That was my Saturday! Just when the Fringe is in full swing I have to leave it and go to work! At least I got to play for just a bit before rushing off to work the box office for Camelot. At least itâ??s my final shift while the fringe is here. Wheww!
So stopped by the Blogging Fringe tent for a brief, helped set up, make a button then off to 1 show. Todayâ??s show was So Kiss Me Already Herschel Gertz, a one woman show by Amy Salloway. I found this show completely charming. As I watched I completely connected in her story even though I am not Jewish nor went to summer camp. Most of us went (maybe still are going) through that self searching, trying to fit in, puberty hitting, awkward first love time of life. Sheâ??s so cute with her ponytails and converse that itâ??s easy to go back in time and you wonâ??t mind the visit, no matter how traumatic your adolescents was!

After the show I chatted with Amy and she told about how she had forgotten her programs. She was gushing how nice the Fringe volunteers were and how they rescued her! She was so thankful. Our fringe volunteers, just another example of why the Orland fringe festival ROCKS!!! And Amy I think I can safely say that Blogging Fringe ahava(s) YOU!!!
Before heading to work chatted with Kyle from Light My Way: A New Musical, Ricky Avila from Matador and Joey from Heart of Coal. Joey tells me their first show was well received and felt good about it! Go Joey!!! For those of you who donâ??t know, Joey is the other part of P-sha productions! You may have seen some of our work and not even known it was ours :)!
Well today the Fringe is really starting for me, I have 6 shows on my schedule!!! WHOOOT! So if you see me around the Fringe or at the Blogging Fringe tent tell me what youâ??ve seen, tell me about your show or just say HI!
Happy fringing everyone!!!!
