INCREDIBLE!!! Kathleen Leary is a star. ... full review

This play was so utterly engaging. Kathleen is a fun and captivating performer whose connection with the audience was remarkable. The writing is so clever and surprised me with how grounded it was. The direction was subtle but extremely clear. It was apparent that a deft hand choreographed the event - between Kathleen's gestures and the interaction with projections. It was just a great time! ... full review

  Sometimes you see a movie or a theater play that you know will stick with you for the rest of your life The Grief Box is one of those! Brilliantly written, and dynamically acted.  Kathleen Leary has the audience in stitches at the start and then seamlessly weaves her story into the darkness we all experience with grief and relationship shortcomings. Her dramatization of pain and anger over her loss, has her dropping to the floor in genuine tears, while the audience is so captivated, that you can hear a pin drop. Her story is so relatable, her theme universally human and her advice will be something I will always look back on with a smile and a nod. ... full review

Grief Box was everything I love about theatre and storytelling. Kathleen transmutes personal pain into a hilarious, heart-felt healing journey for the collective. She commands the stage brilliantly, eliciting gut-busting laughter time and again before stabbing us in the hearts with her vulnerability and clarity of purpose. Bravo, bravo, bravo!... full review

Kathleen balances the hilarious with the heartfelt in a satirical solo show that made me reflect on how I deal with grief in my own life.... full review

Grief Box is a candy-colored satire of the commodification of mourning. A skewering of late-stage captilaism’s approach to The Late. It’s part QVC, part CBT all GOOD.... full review

A beautifully hilarious and poignant one-woman show about working through the ebbs and flows of grief in a society where consumerism and capitalism overrules. What happens when grief doesn't fit neatly into a pretty box? Kathleen is a force to be reckoned with. Her talent is remarkable and she captivates on stage with her wit, humor, and moments of devastating truth. I laughed, I cried, I related, I was thoroughly moved. I am still thinking about the show several hours later. ... full review
