What I liked

I loved the simple design for each show, from the costume choices to the (relatively) few props used. The jokes were funny, the writing was smart, and the blocking quite effective at quickly establishing the setting.

What I didn't like

The only small thing I could think of was that I could briefly see the diary in Dear Diary and there was nothing on the page, which kinda took me out of it for a brief second. Honestly everything was so good!!

My overall impression

I thought that the show was incredibly delightful, and demonstrated the range of “stories” and “records” in what they mean to different people. Each play was paced really well so there was a lot to think about and appreciate, but they didn’t overstay their welcome. It was so good!
