 I really liked Kate Bornstein's performance overall, but about halfway through I started to like it less. I'm trying to think about why. It might have been because I felt, in a way, she was airing stuff to us that she still hadn't completely worked out herself wrt her issues with her father and her daughter. And while I know that is part of the purpose of theater, somehow about it felt almost too confessional, too raw and sort of uncomfortable. I hesitate to use the word self-gratifying, but it felt sort of like that too. She's a completely dynamic performer and I loved her pieces on herself, but when she moved on to talking about others close to her it seemed almost like unfinished thoughts. This could be because it's all part of what she's working on for her new book (which isn't completed yet? or at least not published yet), but I don't know. Something felt off.
