• I Hate Kenny G by Allegra Lingo

I Hate Kenny G

August 2007 : Minnesota Fringe Festival, Playwrights Center, Minneapolis, MN

Written & Performed by: Allegra Lingo

Teaming up with storyteller and saxophonist Allegra Lingo for the MN Fringe Festival, Commedia Beauregard put up its first show dealing with the universal language of music.  Just like any other language, there is so much meaning when you read between the lines.

Allegra Lingo set out to prove that the spaces in between the notes mean more than the notes themselves.  Her mother, her mentor, and a stripper's can of tuna pave the path away from Kenny G.

Sold Out at the 2007 Minnesota Fringe Festival!

I Hate Kenny G awarded special Encore performance at 2007 Minnesota Fringe Festival!
