FRINGE: Sometimes Poignant SPIRAL BOUND is Worth a Look.
SALT LAKE CITY — I saw Spiral Bound at the Salt Lake Fringe Festival on Saturday, July 27th. Honestly, this play, written by Madelyn Salazar, was amazing. I really enjoyed so much about it, particularly the use of special effects. Throughout the play, Martha (played by June Rose) says her phone is trying to kill her (it plays this awful doomsday notice whenever she looks at it), and during a dream sequence later on, the lights become red as the actors shout out doomsday-like headlines about climate change, gun violence, etc. There’s the scene where Martha is on a date with Ben (played by Michael Henry Davies) and the lights have this cool, yellow tone with insect sound effects to indicate the time of day. There are also multiple prop changes, that while small, are extremely effective.
FRINGE: Short But FUN I’VE DECIDED TO BECOME A DIGITAL PET
SALT LAKE CITY — On July 27th, I saw I’ve Decided To Become A Digital Pet at the Salt Lake Fringe Festival. It’s a very short, fifteen minute, one man play, and honestly, it’s fantastic. The script is written by John Wesley Sandorf, and follows Justin, starting at the age of seven, who learns that his classmates called him “weird Justin” behind his back, and threw a party when they learned he was leaving. The play is about the loneliness and ostracization Justin experiences from elementary through high school (and a bit beyond).

Three Under the Radar Utes Poised for Big Seasons
