“A rather lovely piece of storytelling ... witty, well-constructed hour, told with a great deal of self-deprecating charm... executed with a deft touch, authentically heartfelt... elegant and funny… exceptional” ★★★★ Chortle

“Wow, just wow! A very special show... A talented writer and storyteller, I was absolutely blown away and felt privileged to be part of the audience. Danny’s performance is incredibly heartfelt and emotional and there wasn’t a dry eye in the place as he opened up about some very personal moments. My must-see of this year’s Fringe!” ★★★★★ One4Review
