This is a piece of poetry, a painting, a song you listen to on purpose to make yourself cry. I found myself fighting tears right from the first consult Mac had. And when Mom comes out for the final time, I gasped and just found myself so moved by the whole journey I had with Mac. So focused on the destination, we never looked at the places we were on the way. Gorgeously haunting piece.

A fantastic look into the journey of ourselves and the search through time and memory for happiness. We look for do-overs, but is that really what we need? Insightful and well done!

This incredibly personal work stands out as a unique voice on the stage, plunging down the rabbit hole of memory, regret, nostalgia, and doubt to explore the layers of the human soul. Mac, both the protagonist and narrator of his life and story, seems to know what is going on throughout the play and simultaneously nothing at all. The paradox of a life lived, but to what degree? Foglia has exquisitely dramatized Kierkegaard's words that "Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards" with insightful exploration and an open heart to what happens after us.
