Avital Ash Workshops Her Suicide Note (WORK IN PROGRESS)

Avital Ash takes us down the darkest of paths, shows us the worst of humanity, involved in despicable soul withering acts.... So how the hell does she keep us laughing throughout the whole thing? This show is utterly bizarre in its content and Ash is utterly breathtaking in her performance. A Platinum Medal.... full review

Absolutely loved this show. It's funny as hell and also incredibly moving. A must-see!... full review

Allow me to say that this is one performer and one show that is not afraid to GO THERE, STAY THERE, PLAY AROUND THERE, GET DIRTY THERE, BE UNCOMFORTABLE THERE, and FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL TO DO ABOUT IT, THERE! That's a shit-ton of "there," to deal with, but I can only marvel at the pure bravery it takes to turn a deeply personal and unimaginable tragedy into not only rip-roaring comedic gold, but also, deeply, captivating performance art! Ultimately, from my humble perspective, this solo show and Avital's form of storytelling are HEALING! Being able to witness the healing process during a fringe show is truly something to behold. ... full review

This is a fantastic show full of dark comedy and hilarious one liners. It also happens to be very poignant. ... full review

Honestly, one of the best solo shows I’ve ever seen.... full review

Avital's show was truly funny, memorable, evocative, did I mention funny? I knew we were workshopping a suicide note, but wasn't prepared for roller coaster of emotions that came with the humor-dipped poignancy. Whatever stops we made into the abyss were carefully punctuated with quick - but not cheap - laughs on either side...a sadwich, as it were...which had you asking "Is she okay?" and answering "probably". 10/10 would see again. May she never finish. ... full review

This was an incredibly compelling show, unlike anything I've ever seen before. Was moved to tears, and loudly laughed out loud within moments of each other. Very impressed with Avital's courage and bravery to share such intimate details of her life.... full review

I thoroughly enjoyed every second of the show. Despite the heavy subject matter, it was hilarious, heartfelt, and deeply personal. There wasn't a dull moment or any jokes that didn't land. The hour went by so fast, it felt as if only 15 minutes had passed.... full review

Amazing! Both hilarious and heartfelt. Avital effortlessly talks about serious issues while keeping the tone light and welcoming. Highly recommend! ... full review
