Private Parts: The Secrets We Keep
Gravity Theatre—The Studio at Le Théâtre Cercle Molière
Johanna Ranelli is a completely capable, charming actor; especially cute when she plays herself as a child. This show is like a good essay. She states the premise, provides good evidence (storyline) and sums up her point well in the conclusion.
However, I feel a tightening of the script would benefit the play and the audience. There is too much repetition. We only need to be told once that she pooped the bed at 7 years old; not over and over. She has a beautiful, moving story that could be more effectively told in less time, as I, and others I talked to, felt it dragging at points. There are no flaws in her performance. I would love to see her in future endeavours.

“Superbly acted and so well written, you’ll end up feeling all the feels by the time you leave, and it’s almost impossible to not have a part of this show affect you profoundly in some capacity or another.”- Eric Wenstrom, Orlando Fringe
