Capital Fringe Review: A Wild Play
Fringe is not only about what shows are the most entertaining — it’s about allowing artists to take risks, try something new, experiment. A Wild Play provides an edgy and complex concept and thought provoking production.
It seems unfair to consider Who’s Your Baghdaddy? or How I Started the Iraq War as part of the Fringe festival, since the production values are at a professional level. Then again, the show does depict the Deputy Director of the CIA as the Pope, so maybe it fits in Fringe, after all. Especially because it’s just plain fun.
