The story is fucked up---visceral, gag-inducing, and very sad---But it’s also laugh-out-loud HILARIOUS. It reminds me of Martin McDonagh and Trainspotting, so if you like that sort of thing you will LOVE this. It had me feeling a lot, laughing a lot, and floored by the mastery of it all!...

I have never really seen a one person show that has felt so personal, detailed, complicated and specific. Hailey is an absolute powerhouse and delivers gut wrenching emotion while also maintaining a true sense of charisma and watchability. It is personal but never self indulgent, witty but never hammy, and truly a JOY to watch. ...

It doesn't get much better than this. Hailey McAfee delivers a performance full of rage and hurt as Effie. From the moment we take our seats, she's there, holding her juice box, seething, we can feel it with every passing second. From the first lighting cue she is released, like an arrow being loosed. Her anger hits us right in the face, she's come to collect a debt, a debt that we owe her. She doesn't apologize for who she is. She passes her days by drinking to the point of debilitation and generally being an angry shit until she lets her guard down and gives something of herself, lets herself feel something for the first time in a long time....

I NEVER go to one person shows so I was blown away by the depth and complexity of Hailey McAfee masterful, flawless performance. I was captivated by her and Effie's story and how Hailey brilliantly navigates the small space. Hailey's performance is one of the best I have seen at this year at Fringe. I highly recommend seeing this poignant and powerful show! ...

This play is raw, brutal, hilarious, and heartbreaking. Hailey delivers an incredible performance. Her vacillation between hardened intensity and tender vulnerability was absolutely captivating. I won't be forgetting this show anytime soon....
