What I liked

I really appreciated the blending of careful consideration (in how the songs and set were crafted) and quasi-manic and self-amused performance; Molly is incredibly charming and “good” (you should make sure to tell them that!) and finds away to approach self-deprecation with joy; you’ll want to be friends with them by the end.

What I didn't like

I felt like the show was so predicated on playfulness, honesty, and sharing that I can’t really think about anything I would want to see differently in terms of “improvement”; mostly, would just like to see more of what Molly is up to and maybe see them interact with some more folks in the future (I feel like having some more people around to bounce off of would be a lot of fun)

My overall impression

Molly will make you want to hang out with them in their technicolor bedroom and enjoy the sentiments that accompany having dead relatives; the perfect mix of “!” and “:(”
