I liked the humor, the lightheartedness despite difficult topics, and the intimate setting. Haig was engaging and vulnerable; and he was full of lessons! I love the ‘educate, walk away, make a joke’ concept.
What I didn't like
There may have been a moment when the background sound related to the image on the screen was a bit over his voice, which was a bit distracting. But not long lasting.
My overall impression
I thoroughly loved the show; it was so human and relatable, whether you have children or not. It covered so many parts of humanity; the struggle with our past behavior and how we could have done better (in context of raising a child), but the question is could we have done better in context of what we knew at the time? The insidious nature of racism, that which we commit, whether we realize or not, and that which we are a victim (it’s everywhere). The impact of being the descendant of genocide survivors and victims, how this perpetuates hate and shapes one’s experiences.
It was very thought provoking and enlightening. In the end, we realize, we all have more things in common than differences. Could this be what will foster tolerance and understanding?
Bravo to Haig for this wonderful performance and production!
