What I liked

Truly enjoyed being in the audience with this show’s open love towards final girls and all the tropes they bring with them. But Callie never forgets to be as open and honest as possible. In between expertly crafted numbers, she lets us into her history and asks the audience to join this journey, not just of survival but of a life worth living. Honored to have been witness to this creation and I hope her story reaches as many audiences as possible.

What I didn't like

N/A

My overall impression

A fearless, wise and all around necessary piece of theater. Callie has crafted something that is both incredibly personal and all too relatable. By way of familiar horror tropes, she infuses a one-woman show with pathos and pain to bring a tragic and ultimately triumphant story to the stage. It’s brilliant.
