What I liked

I loved the lighting design and ambiance of the show, it felt like I was transported from a black box theater to a full blown large theater production. Frank’s storytelling style is captivating, funny, and heartfelt, and I felt like I was on the journey alongside him from the beginning till the end.

What I didn't like

N/a

My overall impression

A relatable story about how growing up never ends and how the twists and turns of life define what makes us a human. Frank’s incredible storytelling ability makes you feel like you’re in the scene itself – from childhood in Argentina, to coming-to-adulthood in Colorado. Franks paints an incredible coming-of-age story that’s full of laughs and heartfelt moments. So relevant for today’s times as we reexamine what it means to be “a man” and to the masculine.
