More Joy felt as though I was hanging out with friends, listening to a mom telling me a really great story, that was funny, relatable, and that shed light on the intimate side of being a parent and partner!!! ... full review

From the moment Suz steps on stage, you can’t help but smile—you just know you’re in for a ride. She’s honest, charismatic, and effortlessly hilarious, with impressions so sharp and timing so flawless, you’d think she’s been doing stand-up for decades. Her reflections on motherhood are both heartfelt and hysterical—deeply relatable whether you’re a parent or not. She’s everywhere at once: on the floor, in character, switching voices with ease, and so alive in her storytelling that you forget she’s performing solo. She commands the space with dimension, depth, and pure joy. I absolutely loved the show and feel honored to have witnessed a talent this electric. Can’t wait to see where she goes from here. ... full review

“More Joy: A Mumoir” is hilarious, honest, and totally heartwarming. Suz takes you on ride through the highs and lows of early motherhood—from leaky boobs to identity meltdowns—with so much humor and heart. I laughed out loud, teared up at moments, and left feeling lighter and more connected. It’s raw, real, and a total joy to watch! A must see! ... full review

Just a delight!! A raw, vulnerable, and hilarious peek into parenthood through the lens of a young mother. This show will have you laughing and gritting your teeth as you journey with Suz through parenting adventures you were not expecting to hear. She does not hold back and she will charm you with her natural wit and spot-on character work. At the end you will want to call your own mom, thank her for her service, and ask if you ever gave her pinworms.... full review

Gosh I loved so much about this show!!! It hits all the best notes of hilarity and honesty. Suz weaves the emotionally complex fabric of motherhood into a glorious blanket of joy to cuddle inside of for 80 minutes! Do yourself a favor and go see this show!... full review

Suz is one of the most charming performers (and people) I've ever come across. The show on the surface is about being a mom, but at it's core it is so more than that. As a childless 30 year old, I still found so much to relate to. It left me feeling optimistic about growing older and continuing to find what make's life meaningful and worth living!!... full review

Where to begin: this show taps into motherhood with the perfect touch. It’s real and relatable, and Suzannah delivers every joke with candor and charm in equal measure. I was literally nodding my head at everything—from her description of everyday parenting blunders to her postpartum scrappy c@nt to her hilarious impressions of everyone from her doctor to her zany yoga teacher. You could wait to see this on television—as surely someone will be smart enough to produce it—but why not see it live and be able to say you did?... full review
