What I liked

Williams’ performance is thrilling, actually eliciting gasps of horror and exclamations of encouragement from the audience as his tale unfolds. Filled with humor, adventure, sadness, horror and hope, this is a story you will not soon forget. I must admit, I was truly frightened listening to a portion of this show. His misadventures as a young boy will leave you dumbfounded, but it might also make you recall that there is a time when we all feel invincible. If we are lucky, we manage to survive long enough to realize… we are not. See this show!

It is a tribute to the writing, acting and direction that a solo performance can instill such fear and joy in an audience. This is a thrilling, heartbreaking ride!

What I didn't like

My overall impression

An amazing storyteller presents the story of a life filled with adventure and heartbreak. Best show of the Fest!
