What I liked
I loved the question we as audience members had to answer before coming into the theatre, ultimately to have it be the main focus and the major magic trick showcased at the end of the show. Brilliant work overall!

My overall impression
A wonderful blend of heartfelt storytelling, heartbreaking truths and an impeccable talent for magic, Do Better is a phenomenal Dramagedy that leaves you with the after thought of what can one “Do Better” in their own life’s journey. Izzy Salant is a masterclass storyteller, with each personal life story beat having it’s own life, and his unwavering commitment to finding happiness and light through showcasing live magic in between each harrowing moment was truly magical in itself. I thoroughly enjoyed Izzy’s bold and brave retelling of his legacy thus far, and how each magic moment was orchestrated to blend with the storytelling. Fantastic direction from Peyton Ashby. This is one of those shows this past Fringe season that I won’t soon forget.
