Hot romantic comedy hits the Indy stage this weekend

By ADAM CROWE
A Seat on the Aisle

There’s seismic activity on the Cabaret Stage at the District Theatre.

Playwrights Haley Glickman and Matt Kraft have contained it and titled it That’s Hot. A comedic look at a relationship forged through vulcanology, That’s Hot has only a whisp of a story, but the fiery (sorry) performances of Glickman and Matthew Walls sustain and entertain the audience wholly!

As married vulcanologists (NOT geologists!), Walls and Glickman are smart, funny, and playful as a couple dissecting their relationship on the edge of a volcano. It’s not Brecht, but that’s probably a plus. That’s Hot kept the audience involved and amused. A great fit for a Fringe Festival.

That’s Hot runs on the Mass Avenue District Theater Cabaret Stage on Aug. 25, 26, 31, and Sept. 3. Direction is by Dani Lopez-Roque, with stage assistance from Aaron Henze and Ariel Laukins.

Performance times vary and are available at the Fringe Page at indyfringe.org/festival.
