What I liked

I loved the way they blended up lose and distant/virtual interactions and how they allowed for awkwardness in the self exploration as well as letting silence take hold from time to time.

What I didn't like

I can’t say something didn’t work. Perhaps dive a little more into the tempos and use that alongside the interactions with people on the phone. Maybe a scene with lights and music with her dealing with her thoughts and fears alone. Just spitballing. As with many Fringe shows, time is limited. However, with some more time spent workshoping the piece you may clean some parts up for flow and timing and find that you have more room for a few things. Nice work

My overall impression

A moving and very real story. It shows a real person unpacking real trauma in a real way. Yet it finds the highs and lows and keeps it equal parts fun and moving.
