I just wrote another review for a "Pam Show" and even though the other one went straight to my guts, this one did EVEN MORE.... full review

HARLEY WALKER certified reviewer June 10, 2024
Go see this show!!!! The impact of building a show this funny with the core of it being so profoundly sad and full of grief should not go un-missed. I laughed and audibly gasped over and over again. It's a story everyone should take the time to go see. A very important reminder of how unbelievably broken our judicial system is. ... full review

I was really impressed with the use of projection and comedy to bring some light to such a dark and nuanced topic. The show allowed the audience to experience a range of emotion and is such a great addition to the Fringe lineup. ... full review

Some shows entertain you and some shows move you to strong emotions, this play does both. It's rare a piece of theater can make you laugh and then put you on your butt and make you cry. Pam wrote an amazing story and her and Tyler Stilwill gave incredible performances. Excellent direction by Scott Leggett and an overall wonderful night at the theater. Do not miss this show! ... full review

Conflicting show. I laughed because it’s funny as hell, but it’s also not funny at all. I’d call it a profound win to balance on the edge of disturbing and comedy as deftly as this show manages to. ... full review

PAT TOWNE certified reviewer June 17, 2024
Very well done with skillful talent. I appreciate the story and I have long been against the death penalty. So I'm sure it's just me and my cynicism showing, but the show hurts me a little because it feels like it's a thing that's preaching to the choir and won't really make any difference as far as changing minds. I don't know what can or will, so I suppose it's good to have artists continually confront the issue whenever and however they can. But as much as I liked this production I wasn't moved by it. ... full review
