EDWARD HONG the nerds of color certified reviewer June 24, 2026
An amazing premise that gets distracted a bit here and there but grounded by one hell of a charismatic and engaging storyteller that will otherwise engage audiences thoroughly.... full review

Destiny Faith dazzles in this incredible one woman show! Eye opening, provocative, and beautifully written. The show takes the audience through difficult topics of conversation and uncomfortable truths, while managing to be darkly funny, moving, and entertaining! Amazing poetry throughout, and a blend of visuals that enrich the play and move the story forward. Well done, brava! ... full review

The End of The World is a very thoughtful and daring exploration of difficult themes and a brilliant showcase of a truly gifted performer and writer. In a sea of solo shows that are often navel-gazing, Destiny's piece is truly an artistic deep-dive into topics that are not easy to talk about, let alone make entertaining and darkly comedic. The balance of goofy characters, breathtaking poetry and the important questions she's posing leave you wanting more. My favorite moments are when it's just Destiny, in stillness, in a single spotlight, vulnerably pouring her heart out to us. Not with melodrama, manipulation or victimhood but with such honesty and curiosity. I love that she's taking this show abroad because her questions about our country ... full review

JANORA MCDUFFIE certified reviewer June 23, 2026
It was an uncomfortable yet deeply engaging ride that left me both reflective and entertained. The performer brilliantly balanced heavy themes of mental health and our modern digital overwhelm with sharp humor, heartfelt spoken word, and clever multimedia elements. She remained emotionally present throughout, making her story both relatable and riveting. The writing made you squirm and laugh at the same time. Highly recommended. Bravo!... full review

Such smart and funny writing on a difficult subject. Destiny's unique lens allows the viewer to understand and relate to the complex thoughts around considering becoming "unalive". It's really a beautiful work and important theatre for people to see. ... full review

VIVI THAI certified reviewer June 17, 2026
This was a beautiful solo show! Desiree use all the artistic elements of poetry, prose, music, dancing, video, etc. to convey laughter, joy, sadness, anger, grief, and all the emotions in between. The story is deep and compelling and heart-wrenching. Wonderfully written and performed!... full review
