What I liked

Loved the multidimensional aspects, with singing, overlaid announcements etc. It is a very cleverly constructed story written with intelligence, deeply felt emotions, and clever tactics (the institutionalization!). This story and performance had depth although it can be plumbeed for more gold.
Enjoyed it!

What I didn't like

I wanted to hear her words all through, but at times, the background music was too loud to drown out her voice.
The time spent in a psych ward (?) could heave been explored further by adding words of some of the inmates that she discards or takes seriously! I thought that was a lost opportunity.

My overall impression

Very entertaining act put on by a talented performer!
