What I liked

The physical specificity was excellent and made things incredibly clear, which I adored.

What I didn't like

I would have loved a clearer connection between the characters and their respective corners of the room. With the exception of the Clown character, the other characters didn’t seem oriented towards their corners of the room than any other, and didn’t appear to use any of the props/costume pieces on them. They wouldn’t need to, but the Clown only spoke from his corner and used the vest hanging on that coat rack, so it was a noticeable exception that I didn’t see a reason for.

My overall impression

A very physically demanding internal examination of depression, which showcases Ty’s expertise as a physical performer.
