My overall impression

Jen moves seamlessly through a host of colorful characters during this heartfelt performance that keeps the audience moving alongside her… The whole play strikes a satisfying and necessary balance of light-hearted comedy and at times paralyzing grief as she navigates through the simplicity and naiveté of her younger self coming to grips with the complexity of her relationship to her father while they both confronted his mortality. There’s something refreshingly natural and honest about her process of coming to terms with all the events that transpired, but it’s being afforded a glimpse into the dynamics of this wackily unconventional family that really keeps “Comedy, Death, and a New Ferrari” so unique, engaging, and uplifting.
