Favourable Fringe Reviews for "About An Hour"
July 4, 2008 - 9:51am — Jim Annan
It's only two days into the Toronto Fringe Festival, and already reviews have popped up in print. Glancing through the write-ups for various shows, you quickly learn that although the Fringe is a friendly affair, sometimes the reviews are...well...not. Luckily for the cast of About An Hour, the response from audiences and critics have been very positive, including a review from NOW Magazine which has officially labelled the performance a "Critic's Pick".

"About An Hour" Playing Nightly at the 2008 Toronto Fringe Festival

from Toronto
For most actors the idea of taking a single audience suggestion and improvising a one act comedy in 60 minutes is a frightening proposition. But for the "fearless performers" (Toronto Star) of "About an Hour" it's the perfect formula for creating this critically-acclaimed improv comedy.
