What I liked
I loved the deep honesty of the songs, which made them simultaneously funny and sad – my favorite sweet spot. “…bitch, slay, your dad is so dead!” was a perfect splash of cold water in the face. Didn’t know whether to laugh of cry – and I mean that in the best way. “Cry On Stage” moved me to get (yes) teary-eyed.
What I didn't like
The only downside for me was that the sound was a touch over-modulated for my laptop. With my headset on it was decent, but a little distorted. But I’d typically expect to watch such a show in-person (post-pandemic), when I doubt it would be a problem.
My overall impression
A scathing, witty, poignant look at Hotness, the painful prices we pay when we aspire to this image, and the pressure we endure if we dare not to care about Hotness! Molly Kirschenbaum is a talent who brings the kind of soul-deep heat that lasts. And what a stirring voice. I know we’ll see more great things from this fabulous writer, musician, singer, and all-around performer.
