What I liked

I loved the use of the American Flag throughout the show and really thought the acting and writing was on point, raw, and honest. I loved how the Nurse Asistio brought her own perspective to the stage with her family views of traditionalism and her own need to be unique in the world. For me, it was about taking time out to realize to be true to who you are. It also showed how we sometimes put up facades to maintain a perceived outlook on life on what being an American is about.

What I didn't like

I wish the show would have been longer, but for what it was it felt about right.

My overall impression

I really enjoyed the show and thought it really brought a new perspective to following the American Dream and living your purpose in your life. It had me reflecting on my own choices and reasons to be seen.
