Reviews for Literally Who Cares?!:
Critic's Pick "Leo Reich transforms into the avatar of Gen Z disaffection in his taut, biting, darkly hilarious solo show"
THE NEW YORK TIMES
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "Leo Reich's debut hour at the Edinburgh Fringe is a dazzling and brilliantly funny portrait of rabid millennial narcissism"
THE SKINNY
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "This is an astonishingly accomplished first show."
THE ARTS DESK
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "After supporting Simon Amstell on his UK tour, his Fringe debut, ‘Literally Who Cares?!’ is a tear-jerking hour of straight-up truths. If you see just one show at the Fringe, you must make it this."
TIME OUT
★ ★ ★ ★ "A Fringe star is born"
THE TELEGRAPH
★ ★ ★ ★ "Never has someone so young had such a sophisticated sense of their own absurdity."
EVENING STANDARD
★ ★ ★ ★ "Obnoxious, narcissistic – and impeccably funny"
