What I liked

Jim starts in June and takes us on a journey from the summer prep all the way to December 25th. He includes so many fun stories, adventures and advice along the way. He is honest, raw and extremely funny.

What I didn't like

Nothing. I truly loved it.

My overall impression

Jim is a master storyteller! He brings his years of writing, directing, acting and singing to bring this show to life in the most brilliant way. He ties music, lyrics and even math into his show while showing the audience all the different things a caroler has to endure before and during the holiday season. I laughed until my face hurt. And even cried a bit. I love Christmas! But you don’t have to be a fan of Christmas, or Christmas music or even celebrate the holiday to enjoy this little slice of life show! Even the grinches of audiences will appreciate all the magic Jim offers in his 45 minute one man show.
