What I liked

I loved all of the different characters, Susan portrayed, and how each of them were handled with care committed physicality, and I never felt like she was a caricature. I loved her use of multimedia, I loved the staging, and I loved her character that kept reoccurring to tell us about the weather or what kind of path Susan was on, it gave us a real anchor and touch point throughout the show that made the script extremely clear and easy to follow.

What I didn't like

Nothing. Go see the show!

My overall impression

I was so moved by this production. I will admit, I came into this production after my tech, and I was very distracted, however, my distractions floated away right when Susan entered the stage. She is a genuine force and inspiration as a performer and as a writer. I loved her use of theatricality to make us feel like we were on this journey with her with only a couple black chairs and acting cube and some projections. That was really impressive to me! If you didn’t feel the passion in this performance, I’m convinced you don’t have a pulse.
