What I liked

I Was Floored!! Imagine watching evolution in motion—from amoeba to ape to awkward human—all onstage, and feeling utterly transported. The effortless costume flips and seamless transitions made you forget it was theater. What stayed with me was that final tableau: the stage strewn with the remnants of the journey, a visual echo that lingered long after the lights went down.

What I didn't like

If there’s one thing I craved, it’s a longer ride through those wacky, profound moments. Sure, the WeWork bit could’ve been sharper, but really—the urge for more means the show nailed the tone. That itch to linger is a commendation, not a flaw.

My overall impression

This is a fucking weird show for all the right reasons. It was absurd and soulful, loud and fragile. George’s physical comedy and clowning hit every mark: hilarious, vulnerable, deeply human. It’s the kind of performance that sticks in your head and makes you feel part of something bigger. Walk in curious, leave changed. It’s a Fringe festival standout you could watch again and again and not be bored.
