Circle Jerk: First Review!

8 Nov

Our first review is up and it’s a doozy! Jeremy Gardiner of Jeremy Thinks Things had some truly wonderful things to say. Here’s an excerpt of his glowing review:

For me, seeing Circle Jerk (produced in glorious collaboration by Soup Can Theatre, safeword, and Aim for the Tangent Theatre) was like having the most incredible tantric sex of my life. It titillated, excited, and stimulated me and then left me completely satisfied, satiated, gratified, and full. In the space of two and a half hours, the four one act plays that make up Circle Jerk prove the utter brilliance and supreme skill of the teams that created them.
