What audience members in London, Ontario have said about the show:

Liz was absolutely hilarious - her ability to morph into other people is fantastic. And the show overall just had a very clean, professional feel. I really appreciated taking the journey with her - I didn't feel as though she was trying to speak for all diabetics, but was simply sharing her story. I totally recommend this show!

Two reasons I worried about this show: I'm afraid of needles and I was afraid a one woman show about Diabetes would be painfully pedantic. My fears were totally groundless.

No needles, no lectures, many laughs!

Liz McEachern is a choco-holic and a diabetic but more importantly, she is a keen observer of the many characters in her life. From the opening monologue by her unintentionally amusing father, to the sneering smile of her ego-maniacal surgeon, she manages to make us both laugh and care.

You don't have to be a diabetic or even know anything about the disease to enjoy this show. Sweet, but never saccharin.

Watching this play gives you a revealing look at life with chronic illness in a sense of humour.

Liz McEachern has a delightful way of playing out the constant dicsipline needed to cope with her diabetic condition as it conflicts her chocolate addiction. Furthermore, it's laced with a tinge of peril as the resulting threat to her vision grows. Yet, her father, whom she plays with convincing skill, remains a crotchety inspiration with his own problems.

In short, the play is an enjoyable coming of age drama of a young woman learning the consequences of her actions and inner strength to change her ways for a greater reward in the long run.
