Audience Feedback

An amazing journey presented here - very touchy and powerful story told in a very intimate theater...makes you look, as Keith Alessi suggests, in your closet...and forward through the windshield...This is an authentic and not-to-be missed!!!

Very well done- humorous, poignant, excellent.

Heartfelt personal experience, like a Moth story hour. Good story teller. I will leave it up to the listener if he/she wants to hear about a personal journey.
