What I liked

This was a heartfelt comedy about some more-than-challenging life experiences about a father/son relationship. Navigating complicated family dynamics is no small feat, and this production knew how to do it! I could feel my jaw drop at some of the stories. (Semi-spoiler alert: I would see this over again just for the newspaper headline bit. I could not stop laughing at the end.) The comedic timing is spot-on, and the transitions were seamless. There is love, care, and an element of redemption in this play. We loved it.

My overall impression

I’m so happy to have had the opportunity to see this show. At the risk of sounding a bit facetious, this show is perfect for a father figure / offspring outing.
