What I liked

I loved when she came out into the audience in character as herself. I really loved divorce attorney Koch and seeing some of the live footage of her TV work when she was in Korea. Her fairy godmother. And of course the two bird “friends”, probably my favorite gag.

What I didn't like

It was all great!

My overall impression

Vickie’s show had so many fun and varied elements, from the standup bit, to the multitudes of costume changes, the amazing live videos, snippets from her past, and varied characters. It’s a very personal look into the life of an American abroad trying to find their way in entertainment, including all of the fun as well as the challenges.
