My overall impression
The sum of my parts is a must see show. I encourage everyone to see this show. It’s worth more than the ten bucks it costs to get in. When Michael shares his story about Libby, his only real friend while attending school in Santa Fe, my heart broke for all he went through. Why, I question do we still live in a time when something that doesn’t fit the box we want to put it in have to be attacked and destroyed with actions and words. Why would anyone want to hurt such a beautiful soul? It pains me to know there are people out there struggling to be themselves because of our egos still growing up the way Michael did.
My dream for the world is tolerance and compassion. Through his show I believe Michael takes people in that direction with his open heart and vulnernability showcasing what his childhood was like. It is eye opening and I hope heart opening because if you leave this show without having your heart and mind opened I may fear you aren’t from this planet. Which is always a possibility. ;-) If you want to be taken on a ride of emotions and leave the theater with hope for all your insecurities and vulnerabilities this is the show for you. My hope is that everyone at Fringe sees this show! It is topped off with fabulous wardrobe and his beyond GREAT personality. All I wanted to do after the show was hug him and commend him for his bravery!
