What I liked
I loved the set and lighting. I know that sounds cheap, but it’s amazing what you can do with the perfect set. Alex, through her director, utilizes the stage with ease and not only feels at home, but makes your believe that this is her space, without a doubt. It’s wonderful.
What I didn't like
More performances so that more people can see this story!
My overall impression
Wow! What a show! Right from the get-go, just looking at the stage set, I was intrigue and excited. I was not prepared! Alexandra hits you in the face right from the start. She’s bold and energetic and full of life. And what I love is that this is the perfect set-up for what’s about to happen. We watch her show us so much of who she is in the first 5 minutes, that the rest of the play becomes this beautiful journey of discovery and enlightenment. It’s just wonderful.
The writing is what takes hold of you the most. Alexandra brilliantly flows between her three selves like their old hats she’s putting on. And we get such a sense of what she dealt with throughout her life that we are swept away by her honesty and vulnerability. And Juliette’s direction is just an icing on an already amazing cake. She wonderfully guides Alex through this journey so that we are drawn in and held until the final moments.
