What I didn't like

My overall impression

This is probably the most immersive solo piece I’ve ever attended! I had seen the shows debut months ago, and it was already amazing but Cherry Cola has stepped up her game. I want to highlight things, but I also don’t want to give away all of the surprises! You’ll definitely catch some feelings- belly laughs, shock at times, and maybe even a case of the feels. It’s probably nothing 10 pounds of coke cant solve… speaking of immersive, not only does Cherise leave her whole heart on that stage, she leaves behind a whole trail of white powder, water, and a few other things she tosses at the audience from time to time. Herpes isn’t a play- it’s an experience. Brave, funny, and not to be missed.
