What I liked

The short running time made sure every moment never overstayed its welcome. The actors committed to their roles with the highest excellence and huge kudos to Natasha Lewin for having her first writing and directorial debut for a play to be so fully realized. I truly hope this show continues onward from Fringe and that Natasha continues to write and direct.

What I didn't like

My only complaint is that it ended.

My overall impression

This is the better version of Pixar’s INSIDE OUT but done in a more concise manner with more depth and nuance. It is also one of the most unique and shortest take (only 30 minutes!!) on the solo performance show even though it’s technically not as there is a cast. For that, this show is a must see.
