The Thugs
Coffee Guy Productions—Tom Hendry Theatre at the MTC Warehouse
This thing was thought provoking. The two thoughts were “Do they know how truly awful this is?” and “When will this punishment end?”. Both my questions were answered as it came to a grinding end and actor Drew Jensen pronounced it a “train wreck” and suggested it might become a cult classic due to its awfulness. I could go on and on about its faults but I don’t enjoy being mean. Katerina Dawson was the only light in this and I hope she is given something she can shine in, in the future. There is also some promise in Drew. This did win my vote for classiest program at the Fringe. Too bad the play was not of the same quality. There is no explanation as to why this is called “The Thugs”. My guess is because they take your money.
