About the show:
Combining rapid-fire monologues and personal stories with an array of original music — chansons and ballads, cleverly touching cabaret songs, and expansive operatic scenas — this “comic, wrenching, and personal tour-de-force” reminds us that desire, rejection, shame, and the longing to be loved are themes common to us all.
Isaiah just does it with operatic pathos and a wink, and possibly the most memorable use of a red plastic bucket you have yet to see.
Reviews of The Book of My Shames describe an experience that is "impossibly beautiful", "poignant, thoughtful, raw, and honest", and "a fascinating creation".
