What I liked

Molly holds the entire show on her shoulders. The story, the characters, the rhythm. It’s all her. It’s vulnerable and incredibly intimate. Like the greatest theater, Modern Butchood feels like a single spontaneous burst of magic. But Molly’s performance demands a high level of craft and technique. I can only imagine she will sharpen the show as it continues.

n/a

My overall impression

Funny, vulnerable, smart, and consistently surprising. Molly depicts a character not at all unfamiliar: neurotic, sensitive, inescapably human. Everybody on this planet has to figure out how to come to terms with themselves. Molly’s unique perspective was a delight to experience, leaving me with a great deal to think about on my drive home. This show is a MUST SEE.
