What I liked

Loved the dark humor and grand use of the platform. I was on my toes the entire time anticipating whether we were coming into a humorous moment or a somber one. So much creative use of the audience as well, very interactive!!

What I didn't like

We need more telephones. There are simply not enough. Maybe if one could drop down from the ceiling. Thank you.

My overall impression

I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, laugh then cry or do both at the same time. This piece was wonderfully executed, expressing the emotions and deep absurdities that come with loss. The spontaneity in humor and on the fly commentary was the perfect touch to adding some lightheartedness to the subject. Both did an excellent job at representing the chaos and denial that comes with loss, the surface level experience of loss and how we respond/connect with it. My second time watching the piece and I know I will be back for more!
