What I liked

The show was exceptionally well acted. The two actors had to play different versions of themselves without costume or scene changes, using just their voices and physical mannerisms to convey when they were one version or another. The actors were able to change on a dime and I was never confused about when they were one version of another.

When the actress then took on the additional persona of an elderly version of herself, I was amazed by the specificity and believability of the transformation.

Being an NMI production, I was not surprised that the music, lyrics and singing were all top notch!

What I didn't like

N/A.

My overall impression

This was a fascinating examination of important decisions we may make in just a moment, but yet impact the entire trajectory of our lives.
