What I liked

Great interplay between voice-over, visuals and Hal’s delivery. Everything draws you in and you feel like you’re getting a very personal glimpse into Hal’s day-to-day life. He also was unafraid to talk about the tragic loss of his ex-partner in such a loving and moving way. Big props to Hal!

What I didn't like

A few technical glitches happened but that’s to be expected on this first preview show.

My overall impression

Hal Cantor put together a fantastic, endearing and very personal show with many themes that people can relate to! Especially the anxiety part! It’s quirky, funny, personal and above all super well-written, go see it :)
