What I liked

I loved the use of the ropes and how the set was staged. The Ava character had kitty paws, which made her so interesting to watch. I couldn’t help but giggle, because she (Ava) had such cute energy. I also loved that Jackie was sure to create a safe space for the audience. That was very touching. A talent and a big heart. Bravo!

What I didn't like

n/a

My overall impression

I was moved by Jackie’s courage to share some very difficult topics. The show was informative, raw, uninhibited, and honest. The musical numbers were powerful. The lyrics. Wow. THE LYRICS! She’s so talented. I’m so glad that I got to see this show on its closing night.
