What I liked

Christina is SO funny. Lots of incredible and snappy one-liners. I laughed out loud a lot. But she also had incredible balance as a performer in showing us her range of emotions: funny, devastated, broken, hopeful…she is amazing, and I could have watched her for another hour.

What I didn't like

So nitpicky, but I’m not sure we needed the projections with the act breaks, and I was disappointed to not see her set dressing used (other than when she read a poem/put on bracelets). For example, I kept waiting for the payoff of the Kobe jersey being onstage.

My overall impression

Christina is a hilarious and heartfelt performer. I felt like a close friend of hers listening to her story, which takes true vulnerability and honesty in a performance.
