Thought-provoking, Clever, Entertaining, Absorbing, Resonant

See it if You’d like to see a 1 person show that is a gentle ride to give you a glimpse into what it might be like to learn you’ve got a rare cancer.

Don't see it if You don’t like one person shows. This is interesting and I think teaches some great life lessons…if you want to learn them.
