If you’ve been wandering around this year’s Fringe thinking “gosh — I wish I could find a show with 857 bee puns”, then congratulations. Your search is over.
The Bee-Lievers is right there at the top of my list of Crappiest 2009 Fringe Shows. With a cast that has the comic timing of a house plant, and a script that Stephen Hawking would have trouble following, this show plods along for what seems like an eternity.
The show earns extra disappointment from me because 1.) it was directed and choreographed by Jim Lichtscheidl and 2.) 2006’s The Secret Life of Kitty Williams was so awesome. I’m not sure what happened, but somewhere between then and now, Marvel Ann Theater lost its ability to not suck.
