I took a friend to see the show, and it was his first time watching a theatre show. Imagine my surprise at realizing that it’s a one man show; my skepticism grew in the awkwardness of it all. Within 5 minutes my focus faded from “what am I watching” to “this must be the bravest woman I’ve seen in a minute”. We chose this specific show because of the themes it explores. Never did we expect it to be this! ... I cried, his face got warm, we laughed, we witnessed audience bullying (the best type of bullying we've ever experienced). The way Momo took us a long playing us like a fiddle through one emotion to the next and in one bountiful body! I can't wait to take more of my friends to see it again and again. Momo is such a big talent. We look forward to seeing your star rise. - Felicity Zinhle Vilakazi — ★★★★★ (5/5) — November 10, 2025
I saw a bit of myself in every character MoMo portrayed, I related so much and it was like she was holding a mirror for me to see myself in it. What a difficult piece this was, so personal yet so needed felt all the emotions while in awe of how much of an amazing performer she is. - Ongeziwe Nongxa — ★★★★★ (5/5) — November 9, 2025
All along the subtext was brewing mystery on the loose. - Ongie Vision - zamashandu mbatha — ★★★★★ (5/5) — November 9, 2025
