Bob Abelman
"Bob" offers the perfect juxtaposition of epic storytelling and anemic story, of vibrant
verbiage used to describe a pallid person and his meaningless journey. And this very clever comedy has found a home at
con-con.

BOB: A PLAY IN
FIVE ACTS, gets a con-con production, under the creative interpretation of
director Geoffrey Hoffman, and the acting skills of the cast, that well exceeds
the script’s development, purpose, and excessive length.
Mark Horning
If your humor runs the course between outrageous and
farcical, this is the perfect show for you.
Close attention is needed as the puns and quips fly by in rapid fire
sequences. Open minded people only need
to apply. It is minimalist theater done
to perfection as Bob takes you on a trip you will not forget.

Christine Howey
It's a complicated production that is choreographed well by Hoffman, with lots of odd props (an umbilical cord, for one) and quick costume changes. And some projected photos help anchor a few scenes. But perhaps more time should have been spent on shaping a raft of vivid supporting characters that could have made Bob's life more entertaining and sustainable, theatrically speaking.
