Press Reviews:

"Cream of the crop" - Star Tribune

"Here it is, that wonderful Fringe experience that doesn’t feel like a Fringe show. Jeremiah Gamble has written a elegiac musical about a man who tries to forget his sad life by running away to Christmas, Ohio, and assuming a new name. He and Vanessa Gamble portray a stable of funny, sweet characters with spot-on detail — such as a nerdy video-store clerk bent on vengeance. With a musical assist from Michael Pearce Donley (“Triple Espresso”), this show is ready for another life itself. See it here first."

- Graydon Royce, Minneapolis Star Tribune

"Gamble and his wife, Vanessa are capable and appealing performers" with "winning presences"
- Dominic Papatola, St. Paul Pioneer Press

"A show that is more about wanting to forget than actually forgetting, this romantic musical comedy begins by introducing us to Jack, whose tragic past is diagrammed on a dry-erase board. Naturally, Jack decides to obliterate his memory and move to the Rockwell-esque town of Christmas, OH. Unfortunately (and fortunately) for him, his past, present, and future soon catch up. A play with many characters performed by a cast of two- the talented and occasionally gleeful Vanessa and Jeremiah Gamble."
- Jessica Armbruster, City Pages

Audience Reviews:

5 stars: "JACK is unforgettable!" by Lori Bunce: Wow! I loved this show -- complete with a fast paced story, quirky and very funny characters, great music, intrigue & love! And a sneak peek back in time to Gilligan's Island just added to the fun! Now sit right back and you'll hear a tale...

5 stars: "Stunning" by Kristi Lawless: These folks have jaw-dropping talent. The show was humerous, moving, and had a nice message without being too preachy. Awesome in every way. Loved the use of the whiteboards for simple set changes. Highly recommended.

5 stars: "Get Jacked" by Nuke Fool: A funny, engaging musical about a man trying to forget his life. Jeremiah and Vanessa Gamble once again rise to the top of the Fringe performances. Jeremiah, who co-wrote the sleeper hit “The Cubicle” in last year's Fringe, has written a storyline with good pace and sharp, humorous lyrics which had the audience laughing throughout the performance. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

5 stars: "Forgot something so simple could be so good" by Front Row and center: A candidate for one of the Fringe best. It's amazing that a simple story line can be so entertaining. The characters, songs and music were a perfect blend. A must-see performance.

4 1/2 stars: "I'll Remember This Show" by Franklin Heller: The wonderful variety and quality of characters, the strong dialog, and wonderful musical numbers made this a very exciting and enjoyable show. The storyline was compelling, although somewhat predictable. I strongly recommend taking the time to see this show - you won't be disappointed and you will have a very fun hour!
