Wonderful and real
The show gently leads us on a path to insight and knowledge. There are laughs along the way, great pacing, some twists and turns, and real moments of connection to the audience. The central storyteller is gifted and engaged and really feeling it as he delivers stories from his life which contain, without lecture, lessons worth learning. When it all gets wrapped up in a closing scene, which is more didactic, you feel like you're really learn something important and are glad to have it all laid out for you. Excellent chemistry between the two actors. Can't recommend this show enough.
