What I liked
Veronica has the ability to connect to an audience and earn our trust and empathy almost immediately, and the intimate setting of Studio/Stage was the perfect venue for this kind of bond.
The often-uncomfortable details of a tough transition were delivered with honesty and humor, including some hysterical impressions of incidental characters along the way. There is a valuable through-line about self-definition and courage in the face of pressure both from society and one’s own self-doubts.
What I didn't like
A serious incident that results in arrest momentarily interrupts our sympathy. The last ten minutes is probably the most important to the story arc, and could use some tightening and focus to help the final landing.
My overall impression
A funny, down-to-earth, and unsparingly honest look at the difficult journey of gender transition.
