Fantastic, feel good show! The cast interacts and actually connects with the audience in such a fun, hilarious and sometimes silly way that it makes saving the world seem not so difficult after all. Leaving Fringe feeling good about humanity!

A joyous and strange show. Wonderful little sketches united by deep themes of fear and loneliness yet approached with such originality and silliness. Please go see and support this awesome cast.

Super fun with something for every age! Kids will laugh at the silliness, while adults ponder the witty banter and original songs. It's like an onion, keep peeling and see what you find! I saw it twice and enjoyed it more the second time. Don't wait. Go!

By far the best show I've seen at the fringe. Think Hitchhikers guide crossed with fear and loathing.
It makes you feel things. It's insane. Brings people together. Full of hidden messages. Wow, amazing. Went with 3 other people and they were amazed by it.

Went to this show with my husband and two teen daughters and (of the six shows we’ve seen in the past two dsys), this one was by far our collective favorite. They made us laugh, and think, and feel all the feels, and we all left thoroughly entertained (and even somewhat uplifted about the state of our “broken planet”). This was a GREAT show that everyone should go see!

I first saw a version of Broken Planet in Chicago, early summer of 2023. Not only is it a visually stunning display of spectacular comedy performances, but the loose narrative carries a profound, heartfelt, kindness with it throughout. This show truly brings people together.
