What I liked

This is the second time I’ve had the privilege of seeing this moving and powerful show. Michael Myers offers up a vulnerable, honest and fascinating performance that made me laugh, cry, and remember to be more compassionate to the people (friends and strangers) around me both times I saw it. It reminds that we are all on this challenging, painful and beautiful ride together, but that not everyone is equipped to talk about the hard stuff.

What I didn't like

I wanted more!

My overall impression

Myers takes the audience on such a layered and nuanced ride through the coping of one’s mortality that it’s hard to believe only 45 minutes have gone by. I can’t recommend seeing this show enough- this is a performer and creator to watch out for!
