Shows being squeezed by the monetary business model of theater news and review blog Bitter Lemons now have an alternative. Peter Michael Marino, writer-star of "Late with Lance!" is offering to review other Hollywood Fringe shows for free. And with a twist: He'll review them sight unseen.

“Mounting things costs money. Most of that money goes to theater rentals, alcoholic beverages and stage makeup. I’m very happy to support the arts and review any Hollywood Fringe show for free - without even seeing it!”, says Marino’s alter ego Lance.  Lance’s reviews will be posted at www.LanceShow.com under the “Better Lemons” banner.
 
Bitter Lemons recently raised the ire of many performers and industry professionals in Hollywood and around the world after announcing that they would be accepting payments of $150 in exchange for a review. Former executive director of the American Theatre Wing Howard Sherman published a lengthy blog about it with updates including one of the actual paid reviews.

“Late with Lance!” continues its limited run at the Hollywood Fringe on Thursday, June 11 at 9:30pm at The Complex - The East. 6468 Santa Monica, Hollywood 90038
