My overall impression

The journey that PJ Walsh takes from catholic school to the “scared son of a bitch” who enlists at 18 to The White House to Star Search and then back Over There, reminds all of us how lucky and honored we are to have the brave and men and women, like he and his friends, protecting us and our way of life. He moves seamlessly, inspiring belly laughs at his eighth grade teacher and the woman who kicks him off Star Search to the serious and somber moments of riding in a C-130 plane with a soldier’s coffin. And his lord of the dance and windmill moves are not to be missed. This show is what theater should be… laughter, tears and a story that shouldn’t be missed.
