Nostalgic, Indulgent, Fluffy, Delightful, Absorbing

See it if You are a fan of Steve, biography narration style shows, or want to see a hilarious and talented ensemble play countless characters.

Don't see it if You want something big and flashy. This is a nice show with simple execution. Won't like if you don't know anything about the actors career.

Indulgent, Slow, Disappointing, Entertaining

See it if You love Steve Guttenberg and want to hear him tell the story of his life, much of it as a recitation. Supporting actors make this fun.

Don't see it if You don't like one-man shows, especially telling about their own lives. You're expecting a more comedic experience.

"While the play is largely comical and light, there are some tender moments as well. Guttenberg is able to deftly move between the laughs to the moments of sadness and isolation."
