LISA PEZIK certified reviewer August 29, 2021
Wow! The time FLEW by as I was hanging on every word, every scene, every character. Kevin is such a master of his art, tackling hugely personal and vulnerable experiences from his life. His physicality and spoken word poetry blew me away. This was by far one of the best shows I've ever seen. Kevin poured his heart and soul out into the stage in sweat and love and emotion. I laughed, cried, got angry, and felt all the feels in this one. I almost forgot that I was watching just one person on that stage. Beautifully executed. Beautifully told. Beautifully staged. Bravo! I know that whatever Kevin pours his heart and soul into is magic. ... full review

This show was POWERFUL. Poignant. And so multi-layered it was like eating the world tallest pile of flapjacks. I. LOVED. IT. Kevin is magnetic and brings you into his experience with the ease of a hot knife slicing through butter. ... full review

Versatile was aptly named. Kevin Neighbors touched on a myriad of racial and sexual issues that he has had to live with. His one-man performance was "lit" and "woke", to use two overdone words. It was warm and sweet...and harsh and violent...but always thoughtful. If you are white, this performance will make you see what the world is like for a man of color. If you are heterosexual, this performance will make you see what life is like for a gay man. ... full review
ARIEL JIMENEZ certified reviewer August 18, 2021
This was an impressive show. Kevin Neighbors is a phenomenal actor. The way he switches characters is so interesting and intense. One second he’s acting as his dumb horny teenage friend and the next he’s coming out to his father. The emotional beats in this story were strong, definitely a few minutes where you can you feel the pain Kevin felt in that moment. Overall this right here is the definition of a One Man Show because Kevin Neighbors is so dynamic in portraying all the characters that you actually believe you’re in a room full of people. ... full review
SPENCER FRANKEBERGER certified reviewer August 18, 2021
I was blown away by this show. Not only was it incredible but it was extremely relatable as someone who often struggles with identity. Slick, thoughtful, funny, and poignant, this show is truly for everyone who is (or maybe even isn't) explore their own identity -- in fact, some may say it's...VERSATILE (*wink*) for many different audiences.... full review
