Will the Real Me Please Stand Up?

With Alex I expected plenty of charm and funny. What I got was a gut punch into her history and the dark parts people don’t discuss out loud. To understand how this angel grew her own wings; Alex takes on a journey showing us the devil she faced. LOVED IT.... full review

This beautiful and hysterical and moving show was inventive and fast paced and marvelous. I felt like Alex was talking about the core of me (of all of us) as she shared her grief and humor. I knew everyone in her story so well (and everyone within herself so well) each and every moment she brought me along for the ride. Her work is incredible and everything that theatre should be!... full review

Such a beautiful show. I can’t wait to see it again. It had me laughing, it had me crying. Ryan delivers a gorgeously complex performance that will have you taking a look at yourself and grief in a brand new light.... full review

This show is big, brave, and beautiful, and Alex is a true powerhouse as a performer! Alex excels at using humor to cut through the trauma, and her full wit is on display here. She is especially powerful in the few small, silent moments that dot her script — her ability to convey so many complex feelings with just the slump of her body is absolutely captivating.... full review

Alex shares her story of what so many of us battle – those voices in our heads that ultimately diminish our light...that is until we take action. In this hilarious, yet poignant solo show, she attacks the stage with infectious energy. You can’t take your eyes off her. Treat yourself this Fringe season and make plans to see this show.... full review

Alex is a dynamic storyteller. WTRMPSU takes the audience on a wild ride from the present back to toddler-hood and back to the present. All the while taking her listeners on an emotionally charged, funny, sad and oh-so-raw peek into being inside Alex's mind/emotions/motivations.... full review
