What I liked

Everything. There were so many wonderful little touches that made this show so delightful.

What I didn't like

I saw the sloth’s mouth move when his dummy talked (you’ll get it when you see the show).

My overall impression

I love the variety arts. I love vaudeville. I love ventriloquism. And I love puppets. And if that was all Hannah had delivered I likely would have been delighted.

But then in addition to all of that, she also delivers a genuinely unique, incredibly funny, and deeply thoughtful take on ventriloquism, that also shines a light on the many incredible women who came before her in the art.
