Review by anonymous

IMPORTANT NOTE: We cannot certify this reviewer attended a performances of this show because no ticket was purchased through this website or the producer has not verified they attended.

What I liked

Two thumbs up for raising awareness about the homeless epidemic, and more importantly, the ignorance epidemic. The lead performer has a very engaging, natural stage presence, and the ensemble was also up to the task.

What I didn't like

The number of characters felt disproportionate to the length of the play; this could have been a very powerful one-act between only the protagonist and the homeless man with whom he bonds. A sharp dramatic through line was lacking.

My overall impression

A well-intentioned if still developing peek into a unique story.
