Audiences are loving the Show named "Happy Girl", which is part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2022, hff22. Here is a [6June 2022 - Review by HARRIS MCGRADE; https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9385519/ ]
[What I liked]
As you follow along you begin to realize it’s a bit of a mystery what’s actually going on, and the reveal is poignant and satisfying!
[What I didn't like]
The story may come a bit more full-circle with a few extra hints or ‘easter eggs’ to tease the ending.
[My overall impression]
Happy Girl summarizes some of the struggles young people can go through when entering college, in a fun, joyous manner, while retaining it’s core purpose.
