What I liked

EVERY SINGLE THING!

What I didn't like

It could be longer. (JK, it was perfect) But I could watch you perform for hours!

My overall impression

More Joy: A Mumoir is a triumph.

Suz’s one-woman show is raw, radiant, and unforgettable. I was completely riveted from start to finish—blown away by the honesty, humor, and deep emotional truth she brought to the stage. I laughed out loud, and I cried literal tears.

Her story moved me not just as a witness, but as someone also on a journey to reclaim my own joy. It was a powerful reminder of what it means to lose yourself—and to bravely, actively go looking for what lights you back up.

This show is a beautiful, brave offering. A celebration of motherhood, identity, and the universal quest to feel alive again. Thank you, Suz, for reminding us what’s possible when we choose joy.
