What I liked

I really liked that the play was interactive. We as the audience we not only able to bare witness but to actively participate in the story. This made the whole thing feel more personal.

What I didn't like

The time was a bit challenging. But that was probably more of a scheduling issue than anything else. Typically by 10pm my pillow starts making eyes at me and within an instant I have been seduced into the warm embrace of my blankets.

My overall impression

It was a really fun and exciting show. I appreciated Bonnie’s humorist approach to such a dark subject. Her ability to find levity in such a tragic topic is just a testament to her talent and to create a safe space for the audience to be able to laugh through the pain so to speak was remarkable.
