Press for Fat Cat Killers


David Carl, Philip Cruise and Christopher Lee
"Adam Szymkowicz’s Fat Cat Killers lands like a clenched fist in the gut of late-stage capitalism. We shouldn’t be laughing, but we just can’t help ourselves. Lee and Carl deliver game performances, with a script that purposely confuses aimlessness for absurdity and sentimentality for subversion. Imagine all iterations of Dumb and Dumber but acted by your spreadsheet-sleepy officemates and you’re close to the mark. In an age when audiences are primed for bold statements and sharper laughs, Fat Cat Killers arrives gift wrapped."

"The creative team has created a 90-minute piece that flies by in an instant. Lee bookends the show with monologues, first his interview for a promotion and later with the Fat Cat Killer's manifesto - both given in direct address to the audience giving him a moment to shine. I just wish the audience could have lend their support with some well earned laughs. Perhaps they need a disclaimer at the beginning, “No CEOs were harmed in the making of this play.”"

"Not to be missed! Three razor sharp, hilarious, perfectly observed performances in an unsettling dark comedy that speaks to our moment!"
"Very timely. What I wasn't expecting was how funny it felt - it's not what I thought I was walking into. Thank you for making me laugh like crazy! It's a blast! A wonderful and provocative show."

Christopher Cornwell and Christopher Lee
"This show is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time. (And, I thought that before my “Salty Trombone” arrived from the bar.) The jokes are as pun-laden as one would expect from this bunch of clowns. This show is so low-brow it’s high-brow. There’s song. There’s dance. There’s Super-Soakers and Bubbles. They make the most of every cream-pie in their arsenal. It’s wild and raucous, and you will quickly forget the outside world on this 80-minute rollercoaster ride. I honestly did not want it to end."

Clown Bar 2 is a show that dares you to try to look away. This show is loud and fun and bright, especially after a drink or two. Don’t go expecting nuance. Go expecting something big, something bright. Go expecting something. No one can deny that this show is something.
What’s really incredible about this show is what it says about theater: it really is just a bunch of people taking over a space. Here, it happens to be a bar. And clowns. And hey, it works.

Press for The War of Woo
Alfred C. Kemp and Christopher Lee
"...the demon admires humans’ complexity while dismissing the binary of “good” and “evil” represented by Heaven and Hell, presenting himself as a kind of cosmic third-party candidate...the impish, scheming LEE gives an eternity-worthy showcase of suavity and skeeve."
"The entire cast of The War of Woo take on their roles with joyful verve. As the demon, CHRISTOPHER LEE is particularly loving his chance to camp it up... Can this devilishly handsome hellraiser and the willowy blonde deity come to an agreement? ...this odd couple can barely contain their Old Testament-style lust for each other. As a reviewer, I feel the same way about this production."
