What I liked

I loved how experimental and playful the show was. Everything was surprising. I loved how calls stood as transitions, and I had the doorknob song stuck in my head for days. This show makes you think hard and stay present, without asking you to.

What I didn't like

Why does everything always need to be improved? This show proves that we shouldn’t have questions like this. Some forms of art aren’t waiting to be told no.

My overall impression

Incredible show and audience performance. I loved how she used tape to symbolize self doubt. I was uncomfortable and excited every time she came near. Claire is great at embodying characters and fully committing to their physicality. She is funny in an absurd, fearless, unmatched way. See this show!
