Speech!
Just go see it.  Just go.  You’re probably reading this review having already seen it, and wondering if we liked it like you did, and yes — of course we did.  Ferarri McSpeedy, as always, seems to create fun and loving theatre, and this is no exception.  These guys obviously spent way too much time in high school cafeterias waiting for speech contest results, and their nods to being a teenager in 1990’s USA are a riot.  SPOILER ALERT: Erin Sheppard and Matt Spring fake-ice skating to a scene from “The Cutting Edge” was worth the price of admission.  The verse-competition poems by Minneapolis darling Lauren Anderson are priceless, and Mike Fotis’ dancing beer bottle is unsettling and awesome.  Keep your eye out for Tim Hellendrung, too, and go see everything he does from here on out.  In his entire life.  Great show, perfect cast, nice execution — the most fun I’ve had yet at the Fringe.
