What I liked

Elisabeth, Michelle, and Gloria are great as our three titular characters, and Marnie’s writing really shines through the three of them. Edward is hilarious as the token “guy”. I really liked the poster signs as the demarcations of the different stages of life.

What I didn't like

“Crack Whore” not being a crack whore made that part of the title feel a little cheap.

My overall impression

Powerful writing and great actors combined with familiar story structure and clever staging makes this a engaging, emotional, and (for me) educational show about health, social expectations, and how to deal with growing up in a world that doesn’t like you for you.
