What I liked

Like a well-written screenplay, the narrative arc kept me engaged the entire time. I also loved Noadiah’s disarming honesty which gave the audience a shared experience of emotional intimacy. Lastly, Noadiah’s courage in telling his story inspired me to open up. I aspire to tell my story in a way that is equally compelling.

What I didn't like

Honestly, I don’t think the performance/script needs to change.

My overall impression

Noadiah gave a beautiful performance and his story is funny, topical and heart-wrenching. His charisma and charm had me hooked from the start. After the show, my friends and I felt compelled to share our own stories because Noadiah’s story inspires sympathy and forgiveness. I highly recommend Jesus, Trump and the Little Mermaid Walk into a Bar.
