No Parole is living proof that the Free Fringe can at times bring exceptional pieces of work to the masses. The show is tightly directed by Margaret Perry and written and performed by Peru born Carlo D’Amore. D’Amore is sensational in this one man play discussing the true life story about his relationship with his flamboyant mother who moved from Peru to New York conning and cheating anyone and everyone on the way. The story follows D’Amore and how he was groomed into becoming her eyes and ears and his desperate attempts as a young adult to save her from herself.
Funny, intelligent, heartfelt and and acted with a feverous and infectious energy Carlo manages to weave a tale so brilliant it leaves every other Free Fringe show behind.
Make sure you check this one out.
5/5
