Kristin Peters

This show really made me uncomfortable in the best way. I felt a mounting sense of dread in the pit of my stomach that never felt unbearable, as Trevor Schmidt skillfully walks that line between thoughtful and irreverent. The dark overtones of the play were constantly bouyed by moments of levity.

The performances were all solid. Cheryl was a stone cold Paloma, delivering just the right amount of crazed smiling to really show you just how much of a showman her character is -- no matter the cost.

Michelle was the heart as Paloma. Her performance was more subdued but no less charming and definitely more sweet. I think it would be easy to play Paloma as stupid or a pushover, but Michelle masterfully walks a tense line between her conscience and her allegiance to Paloma.

Kristin was a stand out as the white tiger. This role is challenging. It's a bit like the "hello kitty is a British girl not a cat" thing.... the white tiger is absolutely human, but is a tiger. It gives you just enough distance from the uncomfortable exploitation happening in front of you to think that you are immune from sympathizing. But Kristin is too lovely, her voice too delightful, her German accent too charming. She absolutely steals the show, which Paloma would HATE.

I really think this show is worth your time. Trevor Schmidt's work at its best, walking the finest line between absurdity and reality for those of us living in the strangest timeline.
