What I liked

I never knew where it was going. I loved how much she used the audience to tell the story. Claire is a tour-de-force performer and completely captivating to watch each act unfold. The props added such an incredible suspense and addition to the storytelling. There’s a lot to unpack here!!

What I didn't like

I don’t see much that could be!! I think you have it dialed in and I’m sure it changes each night with how it comes across and the timing of it all. If you want to make it 10 minutes shorter (the version I saw was 60minutes) then just trim a few minutes from the end of each act essentially. But you’ve created the most wonderful bizarre specimen of a show!!!!1

My overall impression

Wild, compelling, and absolutely shocking. Claire bares her soul on stage in the most unique and unexpected way. A must see!!!
