Although I think this was an ambitious attempt at a musical with a powerful message, it could've packed an even more powerful punch if the story arc were more well-developed. The connective tissue between the musical numbers is not there, which leaves the viewer with questions in terms of character motivation and story flow. Right now this feels like a work-in-progress.

It felt more like an experience than a story, something plucked out of a memory. I felt it was a deeply personal story that I wish the performance shed more light on.
