Laser is modern dan revolutionary of sorts. It was refreshing to experience a show with such gumption, bite, and zero flips. On a topic some would dance around, Laser boldly, beautifully, and unapologetically expresses their truth and the truth of so many of the trans community throughout history in a way that makes you laugh, makes you think, and makes you reevaluate your own personal relationship to bias, to love, and to the concepts of identity and living ones truth. ...

Yes, this show absolutely lives up to its hilarious and memorable title. Laser is so easy on stage that you often feel as if he is talking just to you. The writing is funny, filled with stories of awesome humans as well as Laser's own story, told with clarity and heart. This show is not to be missed! ...

With apparently casual confidence, Laser somehow walks the line of hard truths, honest vulnerability and hilarity while telling the story of transitioning into his manhood. His ability to hold the audience and the stage is clearly a well-honed gift. His songs reveal added dimensions to the tell-tale story that leads us through his journey of discovery and self-acceptance, woven with a historical journey through time, while advocating from the present moment. ...

Laser is a phenomenal performer in this solo show. Tears, laughter, songs, love, empathy, meaning, truth. From the songs to the stories to the meanings to the acting, this was an absolute superb show!!! It’s obvious why this show is picked up for encore. Definitely so deserving. And if you haven’t seen it, you must. ...

You had all of me at the title! I came to this show not knowing the artist, any of the creative forces involved and very little about what the show was about (on purpose, as I like to be surprised with my fringing), and I was so PLEASANTLY DELIGHTED IN ALL THE WAYS! ALL THE WAYS!! Laser is my kinda guy: a truth-telling, take-me-as-I-am (and that means all of me), you-know-you-gonna-love-me, charismatic performer! I love everything his show stands to share with the world and know it will continue to educate and entertain all who see it! Kudos! ...

This show is incredible. Laser is spectacular and this is one of the most captivating, vulnerable, and hysterical pieces of art I have ever seen. I highly recommend seeing it, or probably streaming it because I am sure it will be sold out! ...
