What I liked

Marla’s writing and performance are the stars here. Rarely do you get to see a show that’s as heartbreaking as it is heartwarming; a show that’s serious about what it wants to say yet light enough to include an 80s training montage. It’s a testament to Marla’s storytelling abilities, both as a nimble writer and confident performer, that it’s such a standout. I also want to single out the clean direction and perfectly-used/designed tech. It’s a complete show that I’d love to see play beyond its Fringe run.

My overall impression

An incredible story, equal parts funny and moving. It’s truly courageous for Marla to tell this personal story and I’m so glad she did.
