ARIEL'S SHOW. Appropriate pace?
Would it be inappropriate to say that this one person show clips along at an appropriate pace? No, no it would not. But did it? YES. Yes it did. One person shows are a beast to write and perform--- and often a beast to endure. Ariel's show was not a beast to endure. It was captivating and captured a perfect slice of a few years in a person's life with enough back story to get us all caught up. Beautiful work.

Unexpected "history"
This show was absolutely brilliant. I walked in, expecting to see a political history show of a president I viscerally despise, and got....A fever dream dark comedy where no one could tell the truth from the dream sequence. The acting was great, direction was wonderful for the space and OH MY THAT PUPPET.

Honest and real expression
Hard to find the vocabulary to review a show you want to call brave without sounding like a trite hashtag trend word of the moment. But for lack of anything quick to think of, yes, brave. Using comedy, dark humor, audience integration and some really BRAVE and awkward honestly, Brian Watson-Jones left us all with a deeply personal, yet relatable story of how we hopefully can learn, grow, and change our mindsets and persons as we experience life.
