It’s an addictive project. As our antihero loses the plot and her sabotages become more wacky and extreme, an early allegory of Leung’s comes up again and again, pushing the character (and the Hater) towards a reckoning of sorts. There’s no resolution, no answer to her obsessive compulsion, just a potential explanation that doesn’t help anyone—not the Hater, not her audience. If there’s one criticism that needs to be put forward, is that the ending is rushed. Sure, the limitations of the Fringe might be the cause here, but that’s definitely something to consider. The play is otherwise remarkable and utterly captivating.
