What I liked
Staging, direction, lyrics, music, script, I could go on, and on, and on.
What I didn't like
Um……nothing.
My overall impression
What a joy it was to see this show. With so many solo-shows and musicals at Fringe, I am always excited to see a show that is both. What blew me away, however, was that this was better than any of both categories I had seen in a very long time.
Theresa and Bobby have put together a show that incorporates all the elements of a great musical, the hilarity of a one-woman comedy, and the drama of a heartfelt story. You find yourself singing along as you would any great Webber or Sondheim musical from the very first song. You ultimately find yourself crying and laughing at moments where Theresa reminds you that we all have struggles and we all have the strength to overcome them.
With the incredible direction of Johnson and the lovely choreography of Braverman, Theresa takes a simple story and brings us on a journey we will not forget. Making this one of the best shows of Fringe this year. In fact, I would easily say in the Top 5. This is the one show everyone should see this year if they were forced to choose. Well done!!
