What I liked

I most liked Chris’s personal stories about his loved ones. He discusses their deaths, yes, but also shares poignant memories from each of their lives. Chris manages to balance his upsetting (but always human) anecdotes with wit, charm, and brilliant strokes of easy-going theatricality.

What I didn't like

This spectacular show deserves a bigger space and a larger audience.

My overall impression

Chris Grace’s autobiographical show weaves comedy, storytelling, and music together to create an experience both deeply touching and laugh-out-loud funny. It’s the best Fringe show I’ve seen — possibly in years!
