What I liked

Rebecca O"Brien is a force of nature! A deeply talented actor and incredibly tender observer who draws everyone to her and recreates them all in touching detail. From the round Russian woman who speaks in universally understood hugs to the “crack preacher” who decides Rebecca’s dog is too scrawny to try to eat, Rebecca finds the humor and the heartache in everyone who joins her on the ride to treatment. An exquisite show, beautifully written, directed, and acted.

What I didn't like

An earlier version several years ago was very good, and she has worked on it since then. Now it is magnificent.

My overall impression

A True Tour de Force!
