EXIT Theatre, the producer of the San Francisco Fringe Festival, has been presenting Indie theater in downtown San Francisco since 1982 IT RUN OFF AND ON TO SEPTEMBER 25TH Wretch Like Me (Or, How I was Saved From Being “Saved”) Follows Successful turn in Edinburgh with “resurrection run" at San Francisco Fringe Festival, this September 20 and 24 The San Francisco Fringe has seen its share of plays about people losing their faith, but never before has one featured a guy singing Amazing Grace forwards and backwards (“Me like wretch, a saved that sound, the sweet how grace amazing!”), further demonstrating what Amazing Grace sounds like when sung to the tune of ‘Gilligan’s Island.’ With additional stuff about teenage evangelical puppetry, the dangers of baptism at the beach in December, communion served with Jack Daniels and a marijuana brownie, and a girl who occasionally wets her pants for Jesus (“Hallelujah!”) and you have David Templeton’s ‘Wretch Like Me (or How I Was Saved From Being Saved),’ which played to critical raves at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland. Now, playwright, author, and NEA-honored journalist David Templeton brings the jaw droppingly funny one-man-show to this year’s San Francisco Fringe. In Wretch Like Me, Templeton—an award-winning Bay Area arts journalist originally from Los Angeles—tells the unbelievably true story of his teenage years in the 70’s, where, as an outcast High School freshman with a strange family and a serious puppet-addiction, he became caught up in the spiritual-cultural tsunami of the 1970s Jesus Movement. Directed by Sheri Lee Miller, Wretch takes audiences on a wild wave of laughter and emotion as David journeys through a freaky Wonderland of Bible-thumping evangelists and surf boarding “Jesus freaks,” populated by marvelously detailed characters: David’s shockingly to-the-point lounge-singer mother; a schoolyard evangelist known as The Jesus Lady; the seriously committed believers Righteous Rick and Jesse P; the super-serious Rev. Dude (a former acid-dropping surfer guy who found Jesus in a tent in Hawaii while tripping on magic mushrooms); and Cindy, a beautiful young believer who will stop at nothing to bring others to the Lord, including wetting her pants for Jesus.

Death can be scary. So can clowns. But what if they weren’t? “Mom?” A Comedy of Mourners is a show of “sharp, beautifully-timed, elegant, physical comedy” (Plank Magazine, Vancouver).“Box of Clowns hits us over the head - and smacks us in the face, and nearly knocks us off the edge of a cliff - with the idea that humor can and does exist in death, and everywhere else for that matter.” (The Oregonian).Now in its 24th year, the San Francisco Fringe Festival brings fresh, daring, exciting theatre of all varieties to open-minded audiences of all persuasions. Often over-the-top and under-the-radar of traditional theatre, “The Fringe” has its rabid devotees – and wins more fans every year.The 2015 San Francisco Fringe Festival, September 11 through 26 (every day but Mondays), brings 34 different shows to San Francisco’s EXIT Theatreplex, 156 Eddy Street.

His landlord wants him and his newly paroled son out; his cop friends are begging him to back down from a lawsuit against City Hall; the local liquor store has closed; and a beautiful, mysterious Santeria practitioner promises salvation in the midst of all the chaos. A hilarious and timely story that tackles gentrification, recovery, faith, sketchy houseguests, and the saving grace of family, Between Riverside and Crazy is “a genuine original that deserves to be seen by anyone hungry for a smart, exuberantly funny urban dramedy” (Newsday).
