What I liked

Strong lead actor, witty dialog, and a non pretentious approach to the artists work.

What I didn't like

There are a few scenes that feel too long and make their point long before the scene concludes, but would be an easy polish for this talented writer.

My overall impression

A masterful retelling of the life of an artist. The lead actor portraying Chris Burden did so with a confidence and skill level rarely seen of the Los Angeles stage. Capturing the audience with a scene that’s sure to make you hold your breathe from the first moment, I think this piece has the potential to be developed for the broadway stage.
