What I liked

The whole mood that this solo show embodies is refreshingly quirky and unique. All of the moments of meta comedy were exquisitely crafted!

What I didn't like

It’s tough to come up with any criticism. The show was polished to near perfection.

My overall impression

QFWFQ is the theatrical embodiment of getting cozy, grabbing a cup of tea, and spending the afternoon curling up with a good, philosophical book. The writing is quick, whimsical, funny, tragic, absurd and everything I’ve ever wanted out of a solo show. Gregory Nussen is magnetic and I didn’t want the show to end. The script does get very heavy and deal with some topics that could be triggering to some audience members, but these heavy moments are balanced out by healthy doses of levity and meta-comedy. You won’t want to miss this heartfelt love letter to Italo Calvino and to theatre in general!
