PHILLIP REILLY certified reviewer June 25, 2024
A must see piece of theater. Raw, hilarious and a truly rollercoaster of a time. A show that you didn't know you needed. Rachel plays with you until she throws some therapy at you to digest. Each character is silly and fun to see until you get to a story that silences the audience. So much depth in this piece and a show that you should see over and over again and come with a new takeaway. ... full review

BABY is, without exaggeration, a brilliant piece of art. Rachel strikes that delicate balance between empathy, discomfort, and comedy that makes for an incredible roller coaster of a show. More BABY please!... full review

This is easily in contention for the best Fringe show this year. It was magical. I am so impressed by Rachel's improv skills, and the air-tight frame she put around those moments of clowning. It was an uncomfortable, joyous, thought-provoking, emotional ride through how we relate to other people. The show is enhanced by Rachel having the insight of being a therapist, but then also further complicated by Rachel being a person having to relate to other people AS a therapist. The mix of simplicity and complexity in the show is remarkable and I've never seen anything like it and I've never seen an audience so WITH a show. I want it to have a long future life. Rarely is it actually true that I think a play will have a profound effect on people, b... full review

A must-see! Wildly funny and profoundly moving in equal measure. I was belly laughing. I was moved to tears. I thought and felt deeply. Do yourself -- and your children and your ancestors -- a favor and SEE THIS SHOW.... full review

Really funny and thought-provoking. Probably the most sincere and funny crowd work I've seen. I felt inspired to write about these topics and find a new therapist. ... full review

EMMA IRENE OLSON certified reviewer June 23, 2024
Truly incredible, this show hit me in the chest in the best way. Rachel is an incredible performer, storyteller, and therapist (I assume based on this show, I am not a client). A beautiful and hilarious and accessible way to understand attachment theory and generational trauma.... full review

An exquisite show. I'm still thinking about it. Rachel had us from the moment it began, I was spellbound. Such beautiful storytelling, took us on such a journey. And unlike anything I've ever seen.... full review
