Delilah Dix and Her Bag of Tricks

ETC Productions LLC at the Second City Studio Theatre as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival

Part standup and part cabaret, this character-driven hour of outrageously maniacal chaos is the brainchild of performer Amy Albert. Delilah, supposedly the elder sister of the Olsen twins, is a foulmouthed, washed-up, celebrity name–dropping, D-level Hollywood wannabe for whom nothing is too inappropriate. As her alter ego swigs Scope and rubbing alcohol, Albert demonstrates spot-on comic timing, an obviously well-trained singing instrument, and the ability to roll with whatever happens. Given the wasteland of TV sketch comedy, here's hoping her talents are discovered by someone soon.

Presented by ETC Productions LLC at the Second City Studio Theatre, 6560 Hollywood Blvd., L.A. Fri., June 18, 10 p.m.; Mon., June 21, 7 p.m. (866) 811-4111. www.hollywoodfringe.org.
