Patrick has many dead friends, which is a huge bummer. But those friends were fun when they were alive, and thanks to the Internet, every message those dead friends ever sent is still accessible! This Fringe debut from Last Comic Standing alum Patrick Susmilch is wry, poignant, and as close as you'll get to communicating with the dead. 'Patrick's show is a rollercoaster of terrible loss alongside big laughs... fast-moving, thoughtful, and I - a hardened comedian - was moved to tears. A work of art.' (Maria Bamford of Netflix's Lady Dynamite).
