Dear Jeff: A Musical Comedy About Suicide & Domestic Abuse

HOLY WOW!!! Callie Ott cleverly crafted a tragic true story into something palpable through song, dance, and humorous characters. She masterfully wove colorful comedy into a dark, heavy fabric, lightening it’s weight, without losing the significance of what happened. ... full review

This show kicked my ass. In the best way possible. Callie Ott was 'singing my life with her words and killing me softly with her song.' Yeah - corny, but completely true. I sat in my car and cried after this show. ... full review

Callie was amazing at times humorous and other times sensitive. A personal experience shared in a unique way by a very talented woman. ... full review

Amazing. Literally the best fringe show I’ve ever seen. ... full review
