DOUG GREEN certified reviewer August 22, 2021
This was my third time watching this astounding, heart-wrenching, funny, and very very wise show. I have nothing but awe for Holly's talent and courage in telling such a vulnerable story so openly, and full respect for her and all her co-creators for making it such a vibrant piece of theater. Can't recommend it strongly enough. ... full review

Holly shares her deeply personal story with loads of heart and creativity. The show is fast-paced, well-structured, and she's just so likable. We watched it virtually and it played great, almost like we were there. Don't miss it!... full review

I loved going on the journey with Holly of discovering herself as she grapples with some very vulnerable and difficult topics of cancer and literally losing parts of her womanhood. It's such an honest and open exploration of reflection that comes as we go through hard times. Her show is funny and heart-warming. ... full review

Deconstructing Holly, represents one of an explosion of really well-crafted, well-performed solo shows over the last couple of years in Los Angeles live theatre. It nicely combines both focus and genuine drama in ways worthy of praise.... full review

An excellently-told, well-structured story that catches you off-guard with an empowering message. This is not a 'cancer' story, or even an 'terrible dating' story - it's a story for all women - all people - of how to take charge of yourself. It's uplifting, inspiring, funny, and incredibly well-acted. A really worthwhile time in the theater!... full review

Holly's show is a true revelation . . . she has channeled her life's journey and wisdom into a beautiful and universal portrait. It is raw, powerful, relatable, and funny. Her ability to play multiple characters, not all female and not all human, is breathtaking. I am not a woman, and have not experienced any of the travails she portrays, yet I was completely drawn in and with her every step of the way. She wrote it, she performed it, she produced it-and she LIVED it all. It is an incredible achievement and should NOT be missed. The Force is with her. Josh Paris... full review
SHELLEY COOPER certified reviewer August 15, 2021
Holly is a passionate and captivating performer! I loved her use of humor with not so humorous topics. She is energetic and bold at times, and shares moments of brave vulnerability. She gave me a new perspective and her story had many twists and turns that held my interest throughout the whole 60 minutes. ... full review
