Who but Castillo would dare to perform your life! It’s improv comedy with a psychological twist, as volunteers from the audience come up on stage, chat with a therapist, and then watch as Castillo’s fearless improvisers turn their lives into scenes, sketches and songs – right on the spot!

Reviews
“Think you need a therapist? How about seeing one who takes your life and puts it on stage in front of a New York theatre audience?”
— “New York Play Uses Therapy, Real Life to Entertain,” Reuters, April 5, 2004

“A big consolation of not being rich and famous is that one can be fairly sure that Michael Aspel won’t leap out from behind the next tree, red book in hand, to put one’s childhood humiliations on stage. And yet, an approximation of this gruesome ordeal is now available to all at the Castillo Theatre, New York.”
— “Tell Us Where It Hurts,” The Guardian, Wed., April 28, 2004
