| News and Reviews for this Show 
August 13, 2012  Broadway Baby | | Review | | When a rather generously proportioned man begins his one-man comedy show by pole-dancing to Far East Movement’s Like A G6, it’s clear that this is one performance the audience aren’t likely to forget anytime soon, but afterwards things become a bit more clear. If you ever wondered what Google would be like as a person then wonder no more, for Craig Rico Shaynak nails the character so accurately that he’ll have you clutching your sides with laughter.

| August 8, 2012 The Skinny | | Review | | Just imagining Google as a living, breathing being is a great joke with endless possibilities, and so, there are very few things American character actor Craig Ricci Shaynak could do wrong. Click Here |

| August 8, 2012 Three Weeks | | Review | | Google personified? If you’re picturing a
recluse, alone in a basement surrounded
by piles of reference books, you’d be
correct. Craig Ricci Shaynak invites us
into his home (cookies compulsory), for a
look into the life of a search engine, and
the insight proves warmly humorous. The
audience tries out Translate, Maps, and a
voice search and hears Google relate tales
of his brother Jeeves, his mate Wikipedia
and his sexy new crush, all interspersed
with queries from search-engine users –
he works 24/7, naturally. The comedy is
fun, and cheesy in the best possible way.
While occasionally the internet-based
puns begin to drag; Google never loses
his enthusiasm. This show achieves
witty comedy for computer geeks and
technophobes alike. |
