What I liked

Lovato is an extraordinary storyteller – never once does the stage feel empty during the one person show; their ability to world-build with their vocal sound effects and distinct characters is top notch. It is hilarious yet dark and twisted, but at the end of the day show’s heart and earnestness is what makes this piece so memorable.

What I didn't like

No notes!

My overall impression

A hilarious heartfelt queering of storytelling, one that will speak to those with broken hearts and dice in their hand looking for answers on how to move on from the past and lean into community.
