What that means at #UglyCry is that we cannot tell the story without you!
We can promise there will be nothing done to embarrass you, but we might ask you to be brave and interact with the set, the performer, and each other. All you need is your smartphone, yourself, and a sprinkle of grief.

 It was great to have Katie welcome us all in personally onstage and AMAZING that she remembered everyone's names! Felt very comfortable right away and excited for the show. Loved the show! From the concept to passion and playfulness and energy by the performer. I sat in wonder the whole time realizing the giant effort it takes to create such a powerful and memorable, as well as intimate show. Changed my life, and made me think of how I can embrace the internet more in my life

  Mack did a beautiful job of writing, preparing, staging and portraying her message! We loved the show and were very impressed with the originality, the technology, the timing, the humor/pathos and mostly, the heart of the performance. The energy never flagged but, Mack, you must have been exhausted by the end! You left it all on stage and the audience appreciated every minute. Congratulations! My son, Colby, is sure your show has a future, a very bright one. Big hugs!

 Enlightens, tickles, and floods you with feelings. And that's just the first ten minutes! This is a brave show! It's a smartly-crafted act of desperation, a raging, splashing, deep dive into grief. Katie Mack jumps through the looking glass of the internet to commune with the dead, to recover her beloved and to find strength. It was like she summoned us to be there, and to be together, and it was a totally unforgettable evening.

     Uglycry allowed me to know my grief for a loved one is unbearable but if I say their name and tell their stories , we can honor them forever.

How did you like the event?

   Katie Mack is a force and will be a great performer someday but she needed some direction with the writing and presentation of this show, it was all over the place and her needing to remind everyone how it’s a safe space and that she’s really our friend and on and on was unnecessary. There was an audio recording of what was supposed to be a Korean woman but it sounded like a white girl doing an accent. Very out of touch.

 #UGLYCRY is one of the most innovative shows I've ever seen. Katie Mack does a brilliant job of taking the audience through her personal grief journey while also holding space for the audience to grieve their own losses. This show incorporates tech, social media, AI, and somehow it all works. 10/10 recommend this show!

  "#uglycry - grief hits different now" is impressive. The best type of interactive theatre - the audience is welcomed in - in a way that is engaging and not intimidating. Mack is a strong performer telling a personal story that is universal.
