What I liked

The actors are incredibly talented. Their ability to deliver humorous lines while transitioning into desperate/anxious moments was lovely to see unfold. I watched the virtual performance of this show; I appreciate the multiple angles that were provided for the remote viewer. It made it more dynamic, which I appreciate since I couldn’t be present for the in person show.

What I didn't like

There was just a brief moment where the connection to the live streaming broadcast was disturbed. That could have very well been my own internet issue. Regardless, that slight disruption was minimal and I still very much enjoyed the performance; it was not a major distraction from the overall experience.

My overall impression

An honest and real conversation between friends. The relationship between Nora and Elle is warm and charming. Their intimate discussion between two friends remind me of over the top yet vulnerable moments I’ve had with my own closest friends. How relatable to dive into the deep end of worst case scenarios with your best friends. I recommend folks to watch this show.
