I was really looking forward to seeing this show as a fan of Old Hollywood, but I left confused. Although a great premise for a historical fiction show about Mae West, I found the show really chaotic and hard to follow. It just didnt quite land. There were some great physical conedy bits interspersed, and its an admirably risky show as it depends on a lot of audience participation, but its all over the place, - more than a little "ADHD". IMHO, this show has the potential to be Absolutely Fabulous, but needs a lot more (nail) polish and workshoping. All the handwritten cue notes were confusing and make the show come across as amateurish. Mae needs to tighten her corset and cues a bit and her come back will be 5 Stars.
