Thanks for posting our picture! Sean was the "Oxford English Dictionary" complete with pages, while I'm due to deliver the gift of a child to the world on April 28th (or so). Good times, great show, though a trifle unorganized. I wish I could have heard more than one or two words of dialogue! Thanks, Liora

Obviously it's a matter of opinion, "Garth." Your comment is both redundant and misanthropic. Your anonymity emboldens you, and yet all you can manage to say is, 'that's an opinion'?
Crawl back to your cave, troll.

What a shame the Fremont Arts Council wasn't more organized in pulling this event together. When I went looking for information about it, I discovered that their Web site hasn't been updated since July. There's nothing on the site about it at all--no date, time, map, directions, nothing.
For those of us who eventually found out about the event by other means, we were stymied by poor route directions and a lack of specifics about where the final party was being held. It's inadequate to tell people the party is "under the bridge" when the neighborhood hosts two bridges and the party location is actually hidden away from typical routes of traffic.
Lastly, the acoustics in the party venue were so poor, and the people performing so unfamiliar with proper use of microphones, that the audience had a hard time hearing or understanding anything that was said in the productions presented as entertainment. In a noise-rich and noise-amplifying location like the one chosen for this event, this is absolute death to communication.
It may have been the 20th anniversary of the Troll's unveiling, but--with the exception of some very cool costumes, as posted above--it really felt like amateur night and was deeply disappointing. What a shame.
