Fringe Festival Reviews: Status Update, Underneath the Lintel, The Beasts, The Day the Nineties Died

Shows I saw on August 4

By Rachel Reiva, The Young Fringer

Hello Fringe Goers,

Yesterday was a great start of the Fringe. I unfortunately was only able to see two shows because Shijin was a very last minute cancelation from the Fringe. But I will see more today.
