What I liked

After spending the entire day going to many, many Fringe shows, by 11:00 Sunday night I was tired. But this show woke me up. Everything from the dramatic, sensitive and almost poetic writing to the vulnerable and deeply rooted performances kept me glued to the stage. The style of the play and the way it was directed and performed made me feel as if each character was speaking to me directly, so directly that I couldn’t look away. And I didn’t want to look away, for before long I felt as if I were also a a part of this story, a close friend each character chose to confide in.

What I didn't like

At first the noise of the bar in the other room was annoying, but after a minute it felt as if it were an underlying musical score, and actually added to the gritty feel of the beginning.

My overall impression

A great experience, a true representation of just how good a Fringe can be.
