It has been about a year since I got to watch live theater, which is WAY too long. This movie actually captures the experience pretty darn well - the voices, the audience, the energy. Schreck's show somehow takes us all on a journey through her adolescence, our nation's history, and this difficult current moment all at once. it is not a perfect film, or even really a film at all. But it is a pretty darn good play, especially if you have kids who love Hamilton and are ready for the next conversation.

I cried. I don't fully understand the struggles of women, but I am still on my way. This woman combined humor and true, damning facts. Her performance is hilarious, and I feel I am a better man for learning more from her story. Thank you for teaching us all, and it would be awesome to see more! Brilliant.

An excellent and poignant show documenting our positive and negative evolution in ensuring all Americans are treated equal under our constitution. From a deeply personal point of view, you're drawn in and kept on the edge of your seat, crying and laughing along while learning (verifiably correct) history about our constitution. The reviews on here are absolutely nuts and only validates schrek's point that we have so much more to go in protecting the rights of the most vulnerable. Ignore the Karen's and Kevin's in the reviews and WATCH THIS.

Most feminist are joyless ideologues but here is a rare one that has a sense of humor. I enjoyed her monologue for about half an hour, but it got tiresome when she started berating justices for not protecting "some" domestic violence victim. I'm just so tired of feminist claiming women are main victims. In fact, most victims of violent crimes -- by far -- are men.

Wow, the few user reviews of this are a trip. Half 1-stars declaring it the enemy of decency, half 10-stars declaring it the second coming. Both of which are rather overstated. This filmed one-woman-plus stage play begins as a nostalgic piece about a childhood spent debating the constitution, but makes a number of interesting turns as it thoughtfully explores America and its foundational document in great depth. It's a smart show for a smart, intellectual audience. The author is decidedly progressive, which is what all the user reviews are really responding to. And while I generally try and gauge how could a political movie is beyond its political points, you really can't separate the two. In the end, there is a debate on whether to rewrite the constitution, with the author taking one side or another against a teen debater. I think that even though this looks like a genuine debate that it's in large part written by the author, since I watched some of a clip of her debating on the other side and both debaters said pretty similar things to what's in the film. This feels like a bit of a cheat - the play likes to suggest that it's free and loose and could be different every time but I suspect (as someone who hasn't watched the play and doesn't really know) that it's not that different from one night to the next - but it's still a fascinating debate topic argued wittily and well. If you don't like intellectual discussions or your head is likely to explode if you hear the wealthy slaveowners who founded this country may actually have had imperfections then you probably won't enjoy this, but if you like something smart and funny and clever and original then you should check this out.

I was surprised by this. Intelligent, witty, educational with the ability to be eye opening without being aggressively in your face. If you have 110 minutes and maybe some time to reflect, I'd highly recommend it. My surprise came from my expectation going into the show based on the trailers.

It pains me to write this review, and I don't know what I expected. The content and stories told in this play are heart-wrenching, but the way it's shown and the decision to film this as a live taping with audience chiming in really made me stop halfway. I'd rather read an article about the ordeals that the protagonist faced (and I'll probably like them too), but watching this as a 1 hr 45 min drama is a chore, more so with audience laughing in between which gives the feeling that laugh track in a sitcom gives. Hamilton as a movie made sense, but not this monologue.

I made it about 11 minutes in. The presenter is sooooo disingenuous. Would love to see actual footage of a, then, 15 year old, participating in these competitions.

The importance of this film/play, cannot be overstated. Described as predictable by another rater, until change is realised fundamentally, this material needs to presented over and over and over again.
