What I liked

Fantastic vision and direction. The performer, Emma, is incredibly charismatic, and she is adept at handling the variety of characters present in her birth chart. I really enjoyed the bouncing from character to character, the love and care each one received, the way she separated them with physicality and clever lighting.

What I didn't like

Nothing to add!

My overall impression

A sweet, beautiful, and (sometimes darkly) humorous story examining the performer’s astrological birth chart during a pandemic identity crisis, and ultimately about loving, honoring, and making space for all the imperfect sides of ourselves. Makes you feel good about yourself and others!
