What I liked

The Escape Room concept and the puzzles as a means of telling the story was so creative and kept the audience so engaged and hanging on her every word. Also, there was so much humor that despite the heavy topic, the audience left in high spirits.

What I didn't like

I could have watched more, more impressions, more details, more puzzles! It was a perfect length truly, but I could watch this person read the phone book in all the different characters!

My overall impression

Brilliant, hilarious storytelling by a master. Emily shines with confidence, composure, and groundedness. She details her experience with self-awareness and compassion for her loved ones trying to process her trauma secondhand.
