Much of this show\u2019s charm and fun is in its mystique and the surprise of experiencing it, so I will not spoil that for you, but Ryan Doucette gives a hilarious performance as an endearing and immediately compelling Barnacle, looking, as most of us are, for something more than habitual existence. Fitzgerald has written a piece that is literate, oddly insightful, strange, ridiculous, very unique and fun. It is 15 minutes long, has been selling out repeatedly and after the Fringe is over the 2011 Atlantic Fringers are going to be divided into those who saw <em>The Barnacle\u2019s Tale<\/em> and those who wish they had. Get your tickets soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Barnacle\u2019s Tale plays September 2<sup>nd<\/sup>-5<sup>th<\/sup> in between shows at the Plutonium Playhouse (2315 Hunter Street). $2.00. Only 10 seats available per show. No advanced sales.
