Captivating, funny, tender, lovely show. Pretty sure every single person in the audience got quiet when we understood we all have a grief baby of some kind. Just lovely....

This is such a special show! I feel like I came away from it knowing Adedana so well and that’s the best kind of show and performer. It takes a lot of courage to be this vulnerable. I feel honored to have heard her story. ...

This show is for late bloomers, people who have experienced loss, and anyone living and breathing. The concept of a "grief baby" is one that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

The way Addy brings to life the loss of her father and the emotional journey that followed — literally and figuratively — is nothing short of breathtaking. Through sharp wit, poignant reflections, and just the right dose of absurdity, she invites the audience into her grief without ever making it feel heavy-handed. Instead, it feels healing. Alive.
