What I liked

The slide show, the scathing takes on classic children’s books (which are easily as problematic as classic adult books), and the personal stories all fit together into a surprisingly seamless and memorable whole.

What I didn't like

n/a

My overall impression

This show weaves a fun premise with enough laughter, heart, and tears to fill a school auditorium, and then some! Brilliant and deft. Will leave you wanting more. And kudos to Timmy — what a talent!
