Theatre Review: Inappropriate!

Inappropriate! is produced by NEO Ensemble Theatre, playing during the Hollywood Fringe Festival. Written by Rom Watson, Maura Swanson, Beth Polsky, Laura Huntt Foti, and E. M. Forster. Directed by Michael Caldwell and Rachel Winfree.

Welcome to a play in the form of comedy show with clever hints of political commentary and sexual innuendos. The play is a series of seven short stories from five writers. Curb Your Urges introduces us to a game show with naughty temptations. The Sub is a solo performance from a substitute teacher. First Date…well, bring your gas mask. The Last Reading deals with Genghis Khan and his disturbing pursuit of women (a divalicious actress is in the reading!). The Pharmacy is a public display of private health issues. Bible Study is another solo performance of a religious woman. Maybe not that religious. The cherry on top is Howard’s End, a eulogy in memory of Howard, a story where the ensemble put all their stuff on the stage for the audience to enjoy.

Inappropriate! is a perfect combination of new and experienced talent, all wrapped in hilarious and irreverent 1 hour show not to be missed.
