FRINGE REVIEWS: Seek and Hide

POSTED: Sunday, September 9, 2012, 1:45 PM

Every year, there's hundreds and hundreds of performances at the Philly Fringe and Live Arts Festival, and unless it's one of the big shows, it's sometimes hard to tell what you're going to get. Here at Critical Mass we're sending writers to as many shows as we possibly can for 75 pocket-sized reviews over the course of the fest. Check back in with us at On The Fringe every day for real talk on what these things actually are!

SHOW: Seek and Hide

GROUP: Dragon’s Eye Theatre

GENRE: Theater

ATTENDED: Sat., Sept. 8, 1 p.m.

CLOSES: Sept. 23

BRIEF SELF-DESCRIPTION: Help! Someone has lost her imagination and she needs you to guide her on a quest to find it! In this theatrical adventure through Smith Playhouse, an intimate audience navigates the terrain alongside the actors. For children ages 5 and up and anyone who’s ever needed help finding their imagination.

WE THINK: Just seeing the Smith Memorial Playground & Playhouse, if you haven’t been to the Fairmount Park treasure before, is worth the trip. But take five-and-unders to see this show! A charming and dynamic ensemble led by Taysha Canales and directed by Suzana Berger takes the audience on a fun interactive journey through Bubble Land and across the River of Sore Stomachs (aided by The Trikings, tricycle-riding cousins of Vikings) in pursuit of a precocious red-feathered bouncy thing. Adults, put away your smart phones and join in — it’s a blast!
