What I liked

I liked the vulnerable, honest and funny rendering of a woman looking for love in impossible places. So relatable here in Los Angeles. But the really beautiful thing was watching her fight to never give up on herself despite hurt and humiliation. Very life affirming. Also, the music was fantastic and Christine has an excellent voice.

What I didn't like

No notes

My overall impression

This is such a special show! One of my highlights of the festival so far! Christine is a generous, open-hearted performer who crafted a clean and clever show with director, Jesse Pilkes. Don’t miss this!
