Final Thoughts About Frenz Finds It

I absolutely adored this show every time I saw it, from opening to closing night. I saw it every week during my internship and I laughed every time... even at some new things.

Frenz is insanely silly in a grounded way, that you couldn't help but adore these men prancing around in black tights and everything that came out of their mouths. The whole ensemble wrote it and was directed by Phil Meister. I've always thought that the more hands that are in a pot, the tighter it is, but that wasn't the case with this show. I hope it gets remounted, so I can watch it for the 7th time.

It really said something about the human condition and essentially poked fun at it. Plus it had puppets. Made out of every day objects! Everything about this show screamed creativity which was the main objective of the main character, Frenz. All wrapped up in a curious bow, it was really something.

Frenz Finds It #1



Frenz Finds It is an epic tale of artistic courage, individual freedom, and romantic revenge, specifically what has been deemed "a poem in puppets" created by Frenz LaRonde and his Wand-ring Minstrels.

Journey into the imagination of Frenz LaRonde as he seeks the Medallion of Raw Talent Genius! With the help of his Wand’ring Minstrels (a physically-adept and fiercely-loyal crew of puppeteers trained on every continent), Frenz takes you to the darkest corners of the Forest of Doubt, the deepest depths of the Lake of Little Hope, and the towering peak of the Mountain of Self-Confidence! Watch as he turns the stage into a carnival of splendor that will dazzle your eyes and tug at your heartstrings!

Child



Someone brought his 8 year old to see Frenz! The kid loved it because of the puppets, and luckily it wasn't vulgar... BUT, I imagine it being what Mrs. Doubtfire was for me. Watching it again as an adult, I got so many more things than I did when I was a kid!
