My overall impression
This show is super funny, tightly written, and excellently performed by the charming and charismatic Eliza Dillon.
On the surface, the show is a joke storm; the hour is overflowing with laughs. But it’s also a skillfully crafted show; it uses the idea of the “EGOT” to present a silly yet unflinching insight into Eliza’s mind.
In this show, Eliza Dillon grapples with her dreams of fame and fortune, her feelings of self-worth, her mental health and bi-polar diagnosis, and her lifelong situationship with performing, all while performing as Eliza Dillon the character: an overconfident idiot with a dream. The text is rich, but it’s also just at face value funny, entertaining, and a good time.
The show, conceived by Eliza and her director Khana Tillman, is an incredibly well-done piece of comedy theatre. The set pieces work, the structure is solid, everything moves so smoothly, and I laughed a ton.
Highly recommend for fans of good shows.
