What I liked

The accents, colors, wardrobe, intelligent use of props like the pills/water, and the score.

What I didn't like

I wish I could hear more from the perspective of Sunday.

My overall impression

What a vision. I’m so impressed by the storytelling, intentional costume choices, and metaphors that are present in this show. Italome truly delivers powerful stories of envy, grief, anxiety, fears, disappointment. Just the full spectrum of human emotion. There was never a dull moment. I was at the edge of my seat most of the time. I appreciated the timing of comedic relief after heavy displays of emotion. I could watch a whole movie of Mermaid.
