What I liked

The music was great and the performance were incredibly heartfelt.

What I didn't like

The theater above could the space could have held off on the seeming demolition. (They were loud and stompy)

My overall impression

Hands down the best show I’ve seen in this years fringe. Trixie manages to be uproariously funny and heartbreakingly poignant often at the same time. Decker has put together a fantastic show that starts out seeming like a light hearted farce but quickly reveals itself to be a deep and introspective look at mental illness. The show manages to be funny without ever making fun of the characters which is a balancing act few can achieve and even fewer can master. Trixie, masters it. SEE THIS SHOW.
