What I liked
Such a well told story, delivered with such good energy in a way that was not at all twee nor saccharine nor complainy nor trite. The depth in this piece is mind-boggling, and I’m still thinking about it weeks later.
What I didn't like
It’s hard to have a show about getting the MacArthurt Genius Grant that ends in a satisfactory way other than, well, getting the grant. And while I think this current ending is an improvement on previous endings, I think there’s still some nuance, some more uniqueness or storyline that can drive home the final minutes the way we’re driven through the first 48. But it’s AMAZING.
My overall impression
There is no one funnier than this man! Such a smart, brilliantly put together show, you are laughing and thinking and cheering and hoping for Tarek from start to finish.
