What I liked

His use of the space, of the props, and of his strengths is what truly sells this story. He is in complete control at all times and it is breathtaking to watch.

What I didn't like

Um. Nothing!!

My overall impression

First, I can’t believe I’m the first review. How are people not exploding over this show and gushing about it. It is currently my choice for Pick of the Fringe. Ty’s performance, and writing, is just incredible. He not only takes you inside his mind to give you a severe taste of what someone with Depression might be dealing with, he does it with such grace and ease. His transition from character to character is not only seamless, but effortless. He has such amazing control over his talent and is truly able to give us a unique look into this world. I could not recommend this show enough. And the direction by Dowling really makes these two artists a truly wonderful pairing.
