What I liked
I love how deceptive this piece is. It’s an absurd premise with an incredible amount of heart and horror dwelling beneath the surface. And Seamus is a phenomenal performer!
What I didn't like
It actually could have been a little bit longer!
My overall impression
This was a rare piece that I came into almost completely blind, and I am so thankful I did. What a wonderful ride, with probably my favorite opening to a show that I’ve seen in a long time (if you’ve never heard Erik Satie’s music with improvised vocalizations I highly recommend, but only if it’s Seamus doing the singing). This show is as silly or as inciteful as you’ll allow it to be: it’s a fun clown show featuring a former first lady; it’s a comment on current events and how we got here; or if you pay attention it’s both. This is the kind of theatre we need right now. And I’m really thankful that Seamus is the kind of performer delivering it.
