Watching Joy, both the character and the writer, find acceptance in herself and with her parents is a beautiful reminder that familial love is expressed in many different ways.
A (only) 30-minute musical comedy lead performed by Fringe newcomer, actress, writer and UCB/Second City/iO West veteran, Joy Regullano (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Modern Family, Supernatural) has simply written one of the best, most hilarious melodramas cast to music this season.
The show runs on Regullano’s charm; she’s just as delightful when her new white parents encourage her to enjoy the outdoors as she is concerned to discover they don’t believe in vaccinations. Each member of the supporting cast is spot-on. D’Acciaro and Palmason nail the absurdity of their unconditional love while Baylon and Tongi mine expectation and disappointment for comedy gold. Not to be outdone, Greg Smith as Garrett, Joy’s new bratty white brother, gets to shine as he raps, curses, and walks all over his parents to great comic effect.
