The El-Salomons, seen on 1/27/19 at PianoFight for SF SketchFest

I normally try not to call performers "adorable" because that's almost always condescending or gross, but Eman El-Husseini and Jess Salomon have basically made a piece about adoring each other, so it's hard to avoid. This is a show about love and I am a total sucker for it.

Up All Night by Nice Tan, seen on 1/27/19 at PianoFight for SF SketchFest

I pretty much expected this to go right over my head, for several reasons. It's a '90s nostalgia piece, by people who are probably about 15 years younger than me. It has a fair amount of African-American pop culture stuff that I barely know. And it's about middle-school girls having a sleepover, which isn't like anything I ever did unless you count a few times I played Dungeons & Dragons with some older kids. So this was never going to be the kind of personal delight for me that it was for a lot of the audience... but, whatever: Nice Tan is really good and this is a very funny show with a lot of heart.
