Sorry for Your Loss Tickets

Absolutely enjoyed every single moment of this show. Takes you through a rollercoaster of emotions that lands you into laughter. Must see!!!

Loved every minute of this. If you have experienced profound grief, you will feel seen. It was both an excellent show and a beautiful homage to the person he lost.

Everyone should see this. ESPECIALLY if you have experienced loss

It was ok. I definitely laughed out loud a bunch. I do appreciate the sentiment to an extent, but it was a little more self-indulgent and less universal than I think has wide-ranging benefits for an open conversation around grief. Renaming it Sorry for My Loss would be more apt. I would have liked to be able to recommend it to others, but my experience as an audience member was that someone else's grief was unloaded onto me, which had the effect of lowering my emotional frequency into a ditch of sorrow. If that was the objective then it was achieved, but I fail to see the value. I didn't find that the humor off-set this, but it just ran along side it, and I did not find the overall message transformative, it felt more like trying to stick a bow on a somber story. It's true that everyone experiences loss and death and these topics are not breeched as thoroughly as they ought to be due to taboos, so I guess if this helps people talk more openly about their feelings, then great, but I didn't find it particularly profound, which would have been appreciated. It would be helpful if someone could offer deeper reflection on the experience of grief other than, "it happened to me and you should feel sad too".

My partner, who I met after my grief experience, has been trying for years to better understand me and my story. He came with me to the show, but was, I think a little nervous about whether he would have a puddle of crying on his hands. We both loved it, and it did in fact help him understand the experience of being a griever a little bit better. His main take "that was hilarious in a way I didn't anticipate". Come because you or someone you love is a griever. Come because conversations about grief are important, and we need to support work like this. And come because it's really really funny, and really really good.

In sharing intimate details about his own grief, Michael Cruz Kayne manages, somehow, to provoke the audience to think philosophically and historically about grief and connect with their own feelings of grief while also interweaving commentary that is authentically funny because it reveals that Michael has delved deeply and unflinchingly into the complexity of his own experience and the human experience. I highly recommend this show, and I am confident that it will be unlike just about anything even a long-time theater aficionado has seen before.

It was so brilliant the way he described grief & loss and had comedy about life and death. I loved it!
