Although Tim Ereneta didn't convince me as a virile, rugged, lanterned-jawed Prince Charming many kudos go to him for a clever concept and amusing story-telling. Recommended!
Tim's understated delivery is stunningly elegant. A very talented teller who makes the audience feel smart. This show is worth much more than you pay for at the festival.
What a rich and dreamy treat!! Thanks for coming to Fresno to share your tales and talent. May you and yours live happily ever after.
This show was, dare I say, charming?!!? I went to see this on the last Saturday of Rogue, and it was hailing and raining on the tent covering the audience and the performer. Near the end of the performance, I realized that it was hailing harder... but then I realized that I had totally forgotten about the hail. I think that says a lot - that one performer with no props was able to make me forget my surroundings.
He's a fabulous story teller. The amount of recognizable material (the basic premises of the stories) made you feel like you were almost involved in the story, sometimes guessing what would happen next. But then he'd surprise you a bit!
I had never seen a one-person show before Rogue this year, but this year I saw four of them. I wasn't sure I'd enjoy them - maybe it's the hokey, self-indulgent reputation they get on tv... isn't that terrible?!!? But the four one-person shows I saw during Rogue gave me a huge respect, appreciation, and fascination for one-person shows.
I can't wait to see what Tim Ereneta comes up with next year!!
Tim has a GREAT talent for seeing the invisible! He has taken us on a journey we couldn't have 'dreamed' of!! I enjoyed the anticipation he stirred as he led us from one tale to the next. I had fun guessing which story he was describing. Amazingly, he told some tales that I'd NOT heard before. I look forward to his next 'spokes off the spinning wheel' of "HAPPY MISUNDERSTANDINGS"! Thanks & God bless you Tim!
Truely a charming show. Gentle and understated, Tim's performance set a dreamy and mythical atmosphere. Family friendly and witty.
glad i got to see this one finally. missed it last year, because i was busy running my venue. tim's timing, delivery and low-key conversational approach are right on for the topic. and his writing is very tight.
