What I liked

Great storytelling by Barbara Bragg about hitting the wall as an actor and struggling with real-life issues. She goes there – profanity, farts and all. Great direction, costuming, sound and visual design.

What I didn't like

Some moments were a bit bumpy but I chalked it up to only having one performance per week. I didn’t take away from my enjoyment of the show. I hope it gets extended.

My overall impression

Barbara Bragg delivers a fresh and unpredictable performance. Sometimes I saw Charlie Chaplin, sometimes Carol Burnett. I loved it- laughed throughout the one-hour show. And the serious moments landed like a ton of bricks. Wonderful direction, supporting cast members, production, and sound design. I want to bring my friends to the show before it closes.
