What I liked

I loved the different voices for each character. They felt very distinct and personal. The songs were catchy and sweet. I loved the comedic bit about being buried with mycelium. I loved the whole concept of exploring the self and asking questions based on her astrological chart, and each placement being a character she’s interacting with.

What I didn't like

The only note I have is to fully commit and move with confidence. I could feel Emma’s uncertainty in moments, and there is no need for uncertainty. The work speaks for itself and is beautiful and Emma is SO talented!

My overall impression

This show was FANTASTIC! It was funny and tender and so relatable. Emma’s voice is gorgeous and her writing and comedic timing are impeccable!
