Rise of a King

Easily the best show I’ve ever seen. Vico delivered a much needed, vulnerable, hilarious, inspiring, and engaging performance. Beautifully written and performed, it is chock full of queer wisdom and clearly a labor of love.... full review

Lively and unapologetically queer show! Thiiiiis is the type of theatre I want more of! Stand up comedy meets drag meets therapy meets HAPPY PRIDE YALL... full review

I was fully expecting a funny engaging show. I was not expecting a deep conversation with self, indentity, motherhood, and childhood. Incredible!! Vico is an absolute treasure, made the night feel like a personal conversation. ... full review

It was very cool. Fun & informative. I was literally the only guy in the audience. It's a trans story and i had very little real understanding of or gave much thought too. Besides my core belief there's a place in this world for all of us and we all deserve to be honored for who we are. The universal journey to discovering who you are & who you're not, to your parents, peers and yourself is familiar territory as a queer human. I liked taking their ride. ... full review

This show was the core of what makes solo shows beautiful. Vico took us on a beautiful and heartfelt journey through their life while also being hilarious, wacky, and raunchy. It makes me so happy to see stories of non-binary joy and coming into your self like this!... full review

Very personal Coming of age story... full review

Truly heartwarming to have Vico tell their story through a variety of drag numbers, speaking, puppeteering and movement. They are vulnerable and hilarious, also welcomed the audience warmly and had some great crowd work. I loved this show!... full review
