Reviews for THE IDITAROD

I truly have not stopped thinking about this show since seeing it. The distinctness of the character portrayals were masterful, the story gripping, and the audience interaction was extremely unique. I loved it.

 

Constantly compelling and unpredictable, with laughs and pathos in almost equal measure.

 

An emotional roller coaster that is both relatable and striking... Her wittiness and impeccable timing, even in the middle of the Alaskan wilderness, is a testament to Maria’s artistic genius!

 

This show is unapologetically strange, but also so funny with the occasional emotional gut punch.

 

Sometimes, a show just HAS ME! I came into The Iditarod not knowing the performer or her previous work, but I left an ENORMOUS FAN! The facts don’t lie – sometimes, a performer is just so AHHHMAZING, her energy so INFECTIOUS, her storytelling so REVELATORY, and her way to interact with the audience so BRILLIANT, you can’t help but fall under her spell!!... This is just an exceptional SOLO SHOW!!!

This show is a triumph of nontraditional storytelling, and is impossible to predict from one scene to the next. Maria is brilliant as both actor and writer—the show is cleverly written and escalates to a never-saw-it-coming conclusion. Can’t recommend this too highly!

This is a unique, engaging show with a performer who radiates charm at every moment, shifting effortlessly from character to character, from comedy to poignancy, from total involvement with her imaginary world to raucous interaction with her audience. 

 

A deliciously uncomfortable exploration of guilt, anxiety, empathy and trying, but often failing, to break our patterns.

 

Despite this being a one woman show, the depth of difference between each of the characters was unbelievable... Maria created a vast, varied world with her characters and with the minimal but effective special effects...Calling it an “exploration of guilt” doesn’t quite go deeply enough into what this show is truly about.
