What I liked

This play subverts expectations, weaving around so many ups and downs, and speedbumps and false doors. I found myself reaching for a tissue only to be laughing again minutes later- and it worked! It is real, it is sincere, and is crafted in such a way the audience exhales at the end in hope.

What I didn't like

No notes.

My overall impression

Wow, what an onslaught of tragedy handled with such deft writing and performances. Metal AF and will make you cry. I don’t think I’ll ever see anything like this again.
