  1. Excellent show. Again, amazed when actors can play multiple characters and pull it off so well. Very worth taking in.

  2. A hilarious comedy of two octogenarions escape for one last badass concert. Life in a personal care home shouldn’t mean one has to stop living. Rob Gee and Jon Paterson make a dynamic duo on stage a fabulous performance.

  3. Ever had a friend who impacted your life while on a musical journey? If so this one is for you. Amazing sound design and rocki’n tunes greatly add to the hilarious performances of Rob Gee and Jon Paterson. It’s a great time and a fiesty testament to the unifying power of music.

  4. Enjoyable! A good time. Props might have helped separate the characters a bit (glasses, hats, etc). 4 stars!

  5. A.W.O.L. was excellent. 4.5 stars. My only concern is that it is selling out, so if you are sure you want to see it, I’d recommend grabbing advance tickets.

  6. A.W.O.L. is pure fun. As a true metal-head (I’m 65), Rob & Jon made what I thought about my future a reality in 60 minutes. Well represented & played with poetic monologue and great Improv (opening nite glitches). My wife gave it a 4 but I had to give it a 5 (my reality). Definitely a must see. Cheers.
