ABOUT THE ARTIST:
“Of the performances I’ve seen at the Fringe so far this year, this is my favourite […] It was perfect.” – Colin Thomas, Substantive Editor
“the luminous Bruce Costella, who threatens to steal the show every time he’s on stage” – Orlando Sentinel
I’m so glad I took a chance on this goofy show! For both Disney adults and not-Disney adults, it’s the fun kind of audience participation.
Right up my alley!!! I highly recommend this show and the performer in general. Mr. Costella, if you’re reading this please come back next fringe!
What a delightful and weird show. The performer’s interactions with the audience, including Mayor Rick, were delightful and charming. Audience participation was fun and non-threatening and helped create an atmosphere where you couldn’t help but root for him.
Wonderfully performed show! Smart, silly and just fun. A must see show from a first time Winnipeg fringe artist.
Very funny, I had a great time! The audience participation was simple and fun, nothing uncomfortable if you’re the type of person who worries about that (I am) so I can wholeheartedly recommend this show!
OH MY GOSH I LOVED THIS SHOW! He is extremely talented and committed in his character! I was entertained the whole time, and loved his inclusion and interaction with his audience! We felt welcomed and brought memories of nostalgia! A must see show!
