What I liked

What I liked most was his perseverance and how he used every method available in the world to find his father, including making a youtube video, going through the yellowpages (before Facebook), becoming an actor, and finally finding out the truth!

What I didn't like


My overall impression

Michael shares his search for his father Robert Hennessey and goes to great lengths to find him, and has so much charisma that he exudes it in his show! He talks to the audience as if we were members of the family sitting at the dinner table, and he’s able to make it so intimate and captivating that we can’t wait to hear what comes next! He talks about all the chapters in his life and it’s like we’re reading about a fairy tale, but it’s his real life – and what a wild turn of events! He shares about all the challenges he had to overcome in his life through his search but he never lost hope! And that’s a lesson we can all learn from, keeping hope alive! Congrats on this beautiful and inspiring work!
