1 A go see for me!  Review by: Gina, Nov 7, 2006
I really enjoyed this show. I wasn't sure what to expect with some not so favorable reviews and some amazing reviews, so I thought I would decide for myself and I really, really enjoyed it. The story is very moving and the actor does a fantastic job. How can anyone not like this show. Go see it with a family member and you will appreciate it.

2 NOT NEARLY MADE  Review by: bobmanl@aol.com, Nov 6, 2006
Nice try but it needs a lot more work as a piece. Friends and family in the audience gave him a standing ovation - but most theatregoers at the show I saw were basically unimpressed and remained seated. No great shakes - sorry - I know there were many pulling for him.

4 Truly enjoyed this solo-show  Review by: Rich, Nov 5, 2006
Great acting and lovely story. A true-father son story that you don't see anyone and what a fantastic job the performer does with the multiple characters. Go see this with your family.

5 Thumbs Down  Review by: Herb, Nov 2, 2006
Although the actor is good - the production is sorely lacking as there is not enough variety in this solo show to sustain 70 minutes. It's way too long. The material is not well developed and repetitive and direction is delinquent.

6 Good solo-show to see  Review by: Sam, Oct 31, 2006
Great actor who does a really nice job with all the different characters in the show. This is a really good solo-show and should be seen. I also enjoyed the music and production values in this medium sized theatre. Nice gift for the holidays.

7   Review by: kernel, Oct 28, 2006
Play runs 70 minutes yet we felt it was 30 minutes too long. Fine actor with weak material as we felt unfolding conflict was repititious.

8 NOT  Review by: Buster, Oct 22, 2006
It's nice to see a son pay homage to his "old man" but this show was not well put together by any stretch of the imagination either on paper or directorially. It remained entirely one demensional and was so poorly directed or not directed at all. This guy flies around the stage working up a huge sweat telling us about his relationship with his father. It's a pretty universal theme and should have you engaged but here it wasn't particularly.... read more

9 Ok for me  Review by: , Oct 21, 2006
Ok, decided to see this show based on the reviews here. Although I thought this show was ok I would not say it is a "must see" and had me crying at the end. I totally respect and got what he was saying, but for me something was missing, can't explain it, just my feeling.

10 Almost Made  Review by: BB, Oct 18, 2006
Surprising little gem with much emotion. The performer is brilliant and captures the audiences' hearts and minds with two parts drama, one part comedy and three parts realism. I thought the actor was holding a conversation with just me . . . gripping and stirring and nice sound snippets from the 70s - catch it before it goes back to the west coast

11 Must See!! An engaging, excellent show!  Review by: Michael, Oct 18, 2006
What an excellent show! Louis Liberti brings the audience into his world, a world where he idolizes his father, the coolest guy in the world, until he starts to learn the sad truth underneath. A one man show is only as good as the performer and Louie uses all his talent to effortlessly flow from one character to the next, cheanneling each one in specific and interesting detail. Louie is simply unbelievable, a dynamic actor. I was drawn ... read more

12 Loved it! Loved it! Go this this little gem!  Review by: Rachel, Oct 17, 2006
I saw the show opening night with a friend who knew Louie, the writer/performer...so I didn't know what to expect and I have to say that I was totally blown away.

For a one-man show, this is by far one of the best I have ever seen. Louie is heartfelt and his story about his relationship with his father had everyone, including myself crying in their seats.

This is a must see!!
