It was a bit difficult to appreciate this for what it is initially because the philosophical element was not as present as I was anticipating from the description and title. I kept waiting for those elements to arrive, but references to Plato functioned more like bookends to start and end a vulnerable, relatable, funny and interesting self-reflection on how we decide what matters when we tell our stories and the impact that has on the people around us.

Laughed So Hard I Cried

I loved this. Interesting premise and difficult themes that could have been very heavy, but the humour and the energy of the cast was a wonderful contrast. Very well done and exceeded my expectations.

So interesting, very engaging and informative, but understandably very grim. I’m happy I went but I was ready for a comedy after.

Very engaging, pleasant storytelling. Felt like hearing the stories we all grew up with, nostalgic.

See It Again

I really liked this one! The actors were very engaging and I found the show funny and interesting with good pacing. I would see it again.

Not My Cup of Tea

I think there is an extra level of difficulty in pulling off this play as it is based on well known actors. Without any resemblance or emulation of those people by the actors (that I could discern) the play unfortunately fell flat for me. It was fine and I don’t regret seeing it but there is room to improve.
