What I liked
Hal Rudnick is one of my favorite LA actor/comedians/sketch artists/improvisers, a wordsmith and a devilishly smart performer, and he handles masterfully the characterizations in his one man show, instantly dropping into character, then effortlessly narrating the next beat. It never lags, makes you feel like you’re there, and despite the manifold ways that one would not want some of these vices of a dad to have to grow up with, it never descends into the maudlin or self-pity….it’s somehow upbeat and transmutes pain into humor, art, and healing.
What I didn't like
Some people coming in late should be seated in the back or something?
My overall impression
A brilliantly paced, brilliantly performed and hilarious story of a son growing up with a complicated and larger-than-life father (and his many vices) in the 80’s.
