What I liked
Everything. From the get go, Sarah will take you by the hand and show you what it’s like to be diagnosed with ADHD which makes it extra difficult to learn new skills as she went on trying different odd jobs just to make ends meet. Never have I seen an hour long show that seemed like it flew by and made me want more!
Sarah breaks all stereotypes and reveals her soul on stage, taking the audience through some hilarious situations that had the audience laughing one minute and crying the next. That’s true comedy that makes you relate to her characters which include psychologists, sexual partners, psychics and baristas among other more.
What I didn't like
A moment in which Sarah’s mind went completely blank for a bit that may also be the best part of Squirrel where she stares at the audience and says, in a loss for words, “that’s life”… turns out the audience loved her even more, clapping and laughing at the situation. Sarah pulled it off after getting the applause and the show went smoothly after that. That’s the magic of the Fringe and having a supportive crowd to cheer you on.
My overall impression
Truly amazing and touching. Sarah has great comedic timing and wit hidden inside that will have you laughing one minute and crying the next. A must see!
