What I liked

I was very impressed with this show. The characters she played were honest and not caricatures. The different points of view painted an accurate picture of the expectations society and even friends and family place on women (and men) of what they believe is the “right path” for parenthood. The choice to have or not have children is so personal and I applaud Ms Dowling for bringing this conversation out into the open in such a thoughtful, touching, and thought provoking way.

What I didn't like

I was not expecting to enjoy a solo show so much and was surprised when it ended to find an hour had gone by.

My overall impression

I was very impressed with this show. The characters she played were honest and not caricatures. The different points of view painted an accurate picture of the expectations society and even friends and family place on women (and men) of what they believe is the “right path” for parenthood.
