It never ceases to amaze me that with four blank walls, half a dozen props, and fairly basic effects, a combination of very good acting and an equally good script can transport you halfway across the galaxy!
I guess that’s what fringe is all about – or certainly what it tries to achieve.

“Great play by a great writer! Yes, this is a fantastic play for anyone who loves Sci-Fi at any level but I think more importantly, it’s a great play even if you’re not really into Sci-Fi! The writer has created two wonderful characters with great chemistry & comedy that’s brought to life by the great actors.
Gary is endearing with expressions which make you laugh before he’s even said a word and Tyler as the “serious” one is smart-alecky but still a very loveable character (you can empathise with his frustration!) – this relationship is very entertaining even if some Sci-Fi references go over your head.
I have thoroughly enjoyed watching the boys in “Dead Static” as well as this most recent adventure in “Pilgrim Shadow” & I cannot wait to see what this comic duo get up to in the future. *Watch this space…*”

With a bigger (though similarly sparse) set, and great lighting effects, it feels more polished, and though there’s a lot to cram into an hour, it does a sterling job of doing so.
It could start quicker – I’d like to see some more life or death in being saddled with a derelict spaceship with the syndicate after them brought out, and I think you have to “joke away” the fact it took less than 30 seconds to fill the hold, but these are minor quibbles.
With a ManMoth ending it’s all set up for part three, I can hardly wait! But for anyone going along, no fear, it stands alone as a sci-fi-love-hate-buddy-comedy.
Go!”
