THE BEST OF SARATOGA SPRINGS

SARATOGA SPRINGS could be the American answer to "Faulty Towers," except that the insanity spills out beyond the confines of a hotel and infiltrates the entire town. Depth-charging through the kind of humor that touches on our darkest unconscious, the folks of SARATOGA SPRINGS give us encounters with attack bagels, magic mushrooms, New Age marketing techniques, and an ice cream man named Mr. Stiffy. The crew and cast do an excellent job of using radio to its best advantage by including hysterical sound effects and maintaining the highest energy. The wit is rapid-fire, so audiences will be thankful for the easy-to-cue CD format. R.A.P. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/SEP 00]
