Most one person shows suck. This one does not. Definitely worth peering into the life of one of hollywood's future power players. Worth seeing. Great blend of stand up and drama... full review

Laura House's show "How to Hate Yourself" was both delightful and poignant. I have never seen anyone with the ability to make me laugh one minute, and then tear up the next. Her humor is undeniable but more than that, she is wise and kind and smart and the show completely reflects that. She is not afraid to dig deep, mock herself when necessary, but know there's a time to be earnest too. Loved this show! It's really worth seeing! ... full review

After seeing this show I hate myself in a whole variety of new ways! Did I write a one-woman show that's funny, open, smart, vulnerable, touching, interesting and a demonstration of insightful self-awareness? No I didn't! Laura House did though, so if you like the sound of those things (which you should unless you're a dick), go see this show!... full review

Laura House's "How To Hate Yourself" is fantastic! A hilarious, touching, and unique take on self-help culture and the things we humans do and use to fill our individual personal voids. Let Laura be your self-hate guru today! All the stars and thumbs up!... full review

Laura House and Amy Schumer are my two favorite comedians right now. I was thrilled when I found out Laura was doing a show in town. My expectations were high going in. She was great. She did not disappoint. Good story telling, super funny, brave, original. I loved it.... full review

What an insightful, funny and thought-provoking look into someone's life. Laura's show is a great example of facing challenges, comparing oneself to another, constantly seeking answers to feel better and never giving up. She told her story so bravely - with great timing, honesty and a lot of laughs. I loved every minute.... full review

Laura House's show was powerful,funny and poignant.She masterfully takes turns at flippant comedy,deep emotion and has been the gift of a being a natural storyteller.She can roll over you one minute and draw you in the next. The tempo and pacing of the show from funny bits about well- how to hate yourself - to her Spalding Greyish look through her nutty,funny and uncomfortable past (complete with the projected visual aid)really showcase her skills as a writer and performer. More importantly and rewarding is her sense of fearless courage and vulnerability which takes this kind of form to a whole new level and makes us embrace"funny" people all the more. Go see it...... full review

How 2 Hate Yourself is an unexpected wake up call. I went thinking that I would be laughing riotously at an Anthony Robbinsesque spoof (and I did!) but Laura's writing and performance was also a lovely, touching baring of the soul (and hole) and moved me to tears and commiserating laughter and left me with a deeper insight into my own self-defeating thought patterns. This show is truly brilliant so go!!!... full review

I expected a simple send up of motivational speakers and seminars, but How To Hate Yourself is way, way more than that. Raw and personal. Hysterical and touching. Laura House is a gifted writer and hysterical performer. I highly recommend this show. You'll only hate yourself if you don't go.... full review

Laura House is hilarious. The framing of the show-- House as self-help guru / motivational speaker, teaching people to hate themselves, is inspired. Even as the show delves into deep emotions and dark territory, she keeps you laughing throughout. ... full review
