What I didn't like

Maybe some tighter lighting cues, but it didn’t take away from the show.

My overall impression

Playing five different characters, Ryan Jeanes takes us on a journey through his traumatic upbringing which somehow manages to be both hair-raisingly brutal and shockingly funny. With a clear-eyed approach, this talented storyteller shares his moving tale with hard-won insights that will leave you thinking about this show well after you’ve left the theatre.
