I loved the balancing of children’s books with personal stories. I was never bored and was always looking forward to what was next. I was worried I’d be bored at the summaries of the books since I know most of them really well (retired nanny :P) but I absolutely LOVED hearing the synopsis from your POV. I also loved the audience participation with flags and coloring- wonderful touches!
What I didn't like
Well I don’t like that you ruined The Pout-Pout Fish for me but I’ll get over it.
My overall impression
Philip is such a rare type of performer- engaging, vulnerable, and hilarious all at the same time. “Lessons From Children’s Books” was a delightful peek at the source of his creativity, in which he balanced comedy with heartfelt life lessons. I laughed the entire show, and left feeling incredibly inspired. Can’t wait to go again next week!
