I'm glad something like this is happening. I'm not sure, though, about the comedy "stand-up" aspect of it. If it were a play with more serious moments tackling the issue intertwined, I would prefer it more. Similar to the article saying that labels are more for the one doing the labeling than the person who recieved the label, I feel like sugarcoating this message as a stand up act will inevitably do it a diservice. <54-102> 54-102
