What I liked

The unconventional narrative structure, voices/characterizations/impressions, taking a difficult subject and facing it head-on and somehow making it funny, 90s nostalgia, increasing visibility and understanding of OCD/eating disorders, music choices

What I didn't like

I want every play in the world to be shorter because I have to pee all the time, but that is 100% my problem and not this (or any) show’s. I enjoyed every minute of it, even though I was anxious to get out of there and pee for some of those minutes.

My overall impression

Kate is hilarious and adorable and vulnerable and her story is really uncomfortable but important.
